Goodbye gridlock! Fifth Element-style flying cars hit the skies by 2017



Slovak company AeroMobil has been developing a futuristic vision of real flying cars. Now, for the first time, its CEO puts a proper timeline on the idea: the expensive toys are to hit the super-rich market by 2017, but quickly improve on specs and price. AeroMobil’s new concept is the third stab at the project, and it looks quite spectacular. thus hails the recent press release. And here's the video to back up their claims.


Cute, but...

IT'S ALL MILITARY AIRSPACE for the foreseeable future!

Where you gonna fly this delightful wobbling thing? Certainly not from town to town in any old arbitrary fashion. Imagine how far ahead 'the general public sky-driver' is gonna have to plan his life to get permission to trespass into military airspace.

Nice, but basically a prop plane with wheels. Check out www.moller.com for a more stylish flying vehicle.

Whatever. Still old style technology. Bring on the real stuff. I would like to say the new stuff, but we all know it's actually really old. So, bring on the old stuff that is the new stuff for us. The suppressed technology. Finally. PLEASE!!!
