    Anyone heard of it? Can find their link at http://www.moller.com/skyc.htm. But beside this, there is an video from YouTube that shows a man have invented a leviating vehicle. Probably this was stopped by some big money organisers.

    Oh man, go to youtube or dailymotion and type skycar; better yet, at video.google.com they have many vids about them... My parents used to say, this cnanot be happening because flying is just too dangerous... Indeed, ever since we have motors the numbers of death have increase dramatically... Hmm.

    I don't know about this whole car thing...It seems so so weird lol. Because a plane engine and a car engine are two totally different things...Seeing a merger is just well...also this skycar must weigh heaps! for a car and light as for a plane lol

    too dangerous blah... if u crash on the ground, chances are u might still survive...
    if you crash up there, u r done.
     
  9. not really, you have the possibility of crash landing smoothly as opposed to colliding head on with oncoming traffic at +100kph or +60mph
