How are they going to solve the problem of having all those cranes
that his vehicles have to be tethered to? Even his Ground Effect
vehicle is tethered in the video.


Moller has not built an aircraft yet. BUT he has made some real cool looking
Gondolas.

Default FWIW, Moller Again ?

I've known for a long time that the Skycar was a scam but I got bored
yesterday and I decided to look over his website. It's amazing he
hasn't been busted for fraud. I first heard about this thing in 95 and
12 years later he has no new news on making it fly. The videos make it
look like he has a working prototype. The feds should bust him for
selling stock for something that will never work.

I think he should stop trying to make it take of vertically and prove it
can fly conventionally but that's looks to be a scam too. It doesn't
look like it has enough wing surface to fly. I think it's best role
would be to sell it as a movie prop...
