that flying car thing

One that shows some promise.

If I understand right, only 20 hours of training would be needed to fly one of these things because it is classified as a light aircraft.

i must have skimmed across something about this yesterday because i had a dream i was holding on to this set of handlebars that fly. it was like the personal scooter version and pretty nifty.

 

Or you saw an old documentary about the Albatross.

Well. If you like the blade runner, you might note that harrison ford is a pilot in real life,..
actually nothing to flying a plane, the physical exam is a little more thorough than a Cdl..

 

194,000 dollar piece of shit

 

you can probably build one for 75/120k.. being a machinist and all..

 

You can build much of the Albatross with balsa wood and saran wrap.

Powered paragliders are pretty cheap.

I find it hard to assess the vehicle from the article. It offers no specifications or performance information. I see the, "car", rolling slowly up the drive and another shot sitting at a gas pump. The article looked to me like a sales pamphlet for a novelty item.

 

THIS IS FUNNY because i found out about this car two years ago while tripping HARD. me and my buds were in my room going nuts, and i just so happen to find this video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHXnLCIgNug&playnext_from=TL&videos=mGZ3VvV14p4"]YouTube- First Flight: "Flying Car" Terrafugia Transition Roadable Aircraft

It's funny that its in production now, and its been a joke between me and a few friends ever since

 

I want one of those airplane cars....not sure about parking it but I will learn.

 

One of those eccentric comedians (might have been Sam Kinison) claimed he had his own personal helicopter but never knew where to park it. So, he would tie it to a rope and leave it running.

My great-uncle left me some stock in a flying car company... I can't remember what company though.

 

No. Not immediate enough. My nightly dreams are nothing more than filing away info seen during the day. For example, I also, during that same dream, pondered the proper placement of my daughters desktop gumball machine before flying off to the park.

I know youre rivetted by my story.

 

google earth is free. and for a couple of hundred grand i could build a complete mad scientist's laboratory. and probably would. if i had it. and didn't owe that much to somebody in order to.

 

Although I would like a ppg one day, the Hoverwing (above), is what I dream about...

i have to take xanax at a couple shots of tequila to get on a plane when i have my kids with me. that probably won't work out so good if i have to fly my kids to baseball practice.

 

ahah the funny thing is, though this is a flying car, it can only take off from airports. Which, kinda defeats the purpose of a flying car
