OK so I now get the SEC stuff but now back to my other question. How likely is it that this thing can fly with conventional take off? My guess is not likely. Tony From wiki... In the words of the SEC complaint, "As of late 2002, MI's approximately 40 years' of development has resulted in a prototype Skycar capable of hovering about fifteen feet above the ground." That ought to just about finish the matter, wiki being taken so literally these says... Must be a typo, the one video I have seen of the thing hovering on a tether was maybe 15 inches AGL. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired That's what I thought too, but if Wiki sez so then it must be true... Ironically, like the Avro Aircar, the only thing missing is a few yards of rubberized fabric for a GEM skirt. Richard |
