Yep, the two problems facing the concept, reliability and automation. To get to the point of real usefulness, It can not crash...and you can't turn the masses loose in a 3 dimensional environment.

I've read a lot about the sky car. No one has seen her fly yet. The developer CLAIMS she hovered recently at their website, but that was questioned and I think theypulled that claim down off the site. Even if she does eventually fly, she will cost way more than the average person could ever afford. Plus the government would neverallow us to have sky cars for the entire population. Too many accidents. There have been other flying cars going all the way back to the 1950's. But none ofthem were ever allowed to be mass produced. I wonder if we will ever fly around like the Jetsons. Seriously though, I think cold fusion drives with magnetic replusionhover/flying ability may become a reality some day. But not in our lifetimes.Bill Akins.----- Original Message -----From: RiskEverything21@aol.comSent: Thursday, February 16, 2006 6:19 PMSubject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Flying carURL does not work. Are you by chance referring to the Skycar that's been out ~5 years now? The one with 8 rotory engines in 4 pods at each corner?
