My God, 98% of the drivers out there (and that’s a low estimate) can’t handle 2 dimensions and now we are going to add a 3rd.
It’s going to be a slaughter

It’s not a flying car unless someone like George Jetson could fly it.

Little harder coasting to a stop if your engine quits at 1500 feet.

That’s one ugly car/plane/whatever. The Moller SkyCar at least has some sex appeal.

Youngest daughter tried to fly our old 94 Buick. Every time I see her, I ask if I can borrow her car. I want to see how far her Honda can fly.

Couldn’t tell how much crosswind there was, but it appeared to really crab to the right upon liftoff and the the left on final. And because of the shape of the body, there is considerable ground effect on the last foot or so before touchdown.
If it flies as sweet as it APPEARS to do in the video....and if I had a spare $280K I’d buy one and reactivate my license.

Take off role was 28 seconds, not something I'd write home about. Climb, maybe about the same as an old 150 on a hot day. How is this thing gonna do with some density altitude? I must have some Missouri blood in me somewhere....

GM is making a new flying car. They’re going to call it the Chevy Plummet.
