Try flying a little Cessna 150--being tossed around like a ping-pong ball in a tornado--and tell me that THAT is what you want to be your daily "drive in the sky." I don't think so. Also, if flying car drivers acted like earth-bound drivers in intentionally ignoring the rules (speeding, tailgating, cutting across private property, not stopping at red lights and stop signs, etc.), there would be people dying EVERY MINUTE of EVERY DAY, falling out of the sky to their deaths. What about getting lost or running out of fuel? It becomes life-threatening up there in the sky, not just the mere inconvenience that it is on the ground. What about property rights; would these flying car people NOT fly where they weren't supposed to, or would they flaunt the law as they do on the ground? No, it seems more like a dream than a possibility. The wind factor alone would seriously discourage most flying car advocates. (P. S. I would LOVE to fly a "car" around like George Jetson, but there are too many real obstacles to making this possible, unless it just happens to be an airplane which can drive away once it lands at the airport.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[aerospacemajor]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 21st 2008 11:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flying Car That Doesn't Fly Sells For Over $130,000]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</guid><description><![CDATA[A practicle aerocar was designed and built by Molt Taylor back in the 40s or 50s.  It was featured on the Bob Cummings Show in the 50s.  One of the last remaining examples is on display at the EAA Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.  You can get a glimpse of it at www.airventuremuseum.org/virtual/spirit.asp.  It's the yellow aircraft to the left of the Spirit of St. Louis.<br>During the annual Airventure convention the year it was donated to the museum, I believe it made several final flights.  I do remember seeing it fly in the 70s or 80s.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dale Counihan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 28th 2008 7:44AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flying Car That Doesn't Fly Sells For Over $130,000]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</guid><description><![CDATA[it should not be called a flying car it would proble work if someone did not want to actualy want to fly it it would be a good envention though but would you have to have a new licence]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mygirl1013]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 18th 2008 3:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flying Car That Doesn't Fly Sells For Over $130,000]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</guid><description><![CDATA[it does not fly all it does is crash its a metal death trap some idiot is gonna try to fly it and crash]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mygirl1013]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 18th 2008 3:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flying Car That Doesn't Fly Sells For Over $130,000]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</guid><description><![CDATA[I do agree with most of your statement, but would like to remain neutral on commenting at this time.<br><br>Man has a need to currupt the land, why not the sky?

I asked about insurance.  Seems that running intio someone or something on the ground is a lot less expensive to insure than someone flying into your second story bedroom.  The concept "never got off the ground."]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John Glaab]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 19th 2008 12:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flying Car That Doesn't Fly Sells For Over $130,000]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/01/16/flying-car-that-doesnt-fly-sells-for-over-130-000/</guid><description><![CDATA[The best flying car is made by Moller!
