Moller Skycar

The only thing I can figure is that after people spend hours in traffic, a
skycar that promises relief from that crawl sounds appealing. *



As an infamous Louisiana politician once said, "son, you don't get
elected by paving roads, you get elected by PROMISING to pave roads."

Moller's "success" can be directly attributed to the desire of most
people (Americans at least) to want to feel superior to thier fellow
man. And what better way than to have a flying car, while neighobr
Jones over there is still grounded in Atlanta traffic. Its the same
thing that causes idiots to pass me on the right while driving down a
2-lane county road in the middle of Bumblescrew, Colorado. "Where ya
goin' in such a damn hurry, jackass? Just in front of 'ur truck."

A few moons ago, someone one this group proposed that for far less
money than a "skycar", one could purchase a C-47 and a Mini Cooper.
Build a set of Jeep ramps, drive in, and strap down. Guess what? I
just invented the flying car! Might work even better with something
like a Shorts Skyvan or a C-123.

The truly ironic thing is that Moller didn't even invent the name.
That credit goes to John Pitts. Yes, the original "skycar" was that
giant jumping-jack-picnic-umbrella contraption that we've all seen on
the Hitler Channel once or twice bouncing around. Funny as hell. But
then so is Moller.
