Moller skycar still kicking

http://www.moller.com/

I read the first link and skimmed the second. Couldn't take any more
as my sides were splitting. Ceiling 29,000, speed 350.
No...please...stop it!

Check out http://www.moller.com/purchase/purch_info.html. Only $100K
to secure a delivery slot! And the "car" will be priced at (slightly) less than
a million smackers! If you're willing to wait till after position 250 (I think it
was), you only pay $10K and a final price of $500K.

I think I'll wait till postion 100K and pay $10,000....

The article also says something about the recent hover. IIRC that was 2 years
ago. Amazing how a project he has been working on for 30 years still can't
hover out of ground effect let alone transition to horizontal flight. I bet a
few million dollars worth of investment will fix that.

Be my guest :-)

I'm waiting for the exciting computer animation of what it will look
like. That should only take 3 years and a couple million, but it's
all in the name of progress.

I should have engaged sarcasm mode

I am surprised the con artist hasn't made any form of animation let alone 3D.

I bet this could fly from point A to point B without speed limits. See

On no, the flying car again.

Building a flying car is hard. Building a flying ONE CAR GARAGE is easier
and you can put anything in it you like. I like a Mercedes limo in a C-130
although someone suggested that a skate board duct taped to the strut of an
ultralight would work too.

I presume most of the investors would not lose sleep over the loss of
$100K... they probably consider these payments as purely assisting an R&D
effort. It's the same concept as people kicking in $5 for a worthy cause...
