Default Re: Just a thought...

I mean things like this


My point is that any "flying" vehicle, even things with VTOL capability (helicopters etc) would just be not at all efficient for short distances of travel.

And for longer distances, aircraft like the above one already exist to move smaller numbers of people over long distances in the air.

I simply deny that airborne vehicles for personal use would ever become "practical for every day use of the normal person" to use your phrase.
