hmmm no traffic jams in 2017

#1 Yeah, but air jams in 2018

I would say it's a foldable airplain not a flying car.

In case anyone wants to see some stats:

Every time I hear someone say "Where's my flying car?" I think how short sighted they are. In today's world, flying cars are a fool's dream. First, remember, something like this vehicle will cost a lot more than even the highest price exotic car. Then, you'll need a pilot's license. They don't come cheap or fast. This vehicle is over 19 feet long. Just try to drive it around your typical city! Try to park it anywhere! And where are you going to fly to so often that you need your own 2 seat aircraft. Only the pilot and ONE passenger, so forget the family. I hope that the "flying car" idea goes away quietly. We have shown that humans, as a group, can't keep their shit together just driving normal cars around. How do you think a few rich dicks will do flying their "cars" to their summer homes, just to show off. Piloting an aircraft is a VERY serious thing. It requires total concentration much of the time, no looking at your smart phone, texting your friends and taking selfies. OK, enough of a rant, but I hope you see my point. That "flying cars"are just about the dumbest idea that has lasted far too long.

#5 the few rich dicks that made it there in the first place are smart enough and worked hard to make that much to afford flying cars.

Surprisingly boring video considering the subject.

The inherent complexity of 3d roadways in the sky, the added visual and noise pollution, the much greater chance of having stuff falling on your head... no thanks.

To get around town, this thing only has small wings. Consequently, it must fly like an anvil. Combining the constraints of a solid car and a stable plane is like playing tennis with a frying pan. Or cook with a tennis racket. It's a crazy dream that makes me think about how we imagined the future in the 50's.

I think flying cars wil be for the public if the autodrive/fly tech is fully developed. Then it is just entering the destination, the weight and distance are calculated for the needed stops in between for recharging. I hope these become fully electric, and charged by solar and wind power. And if they work like airgliders, the only power needed is for take off.

But then, we still need to take over control when something goes wrong, perhaps a pedal powered propeller?

#5 If flying cars take off (Pun intended) and become more the norm than the dream, they will, like all new products develop, become smaller and cheaper, think £800 VCR's in the 70's. Current pilot licence training could be streamlined for a lover flying vehicle such as this. I'm all for them..Dear Santa, you know that Lamborghini I mentioned..well I've been thinking....

Less traffic jams but more crashes.
