Bad enough have to worry about cars on both sides of you and front to back.
Now have to worry about above you?

This is great! Should get me to the early bird specials in no time. For future reference I prefer to be called a “Sun Bird”.

I guess flying isn't the problem, it's the landing?

I had an Instrument rating briefly - it is a very difficult thing to do singlehanded in an aircraft without A/P. I cannot see this happening unless the "cars" are completely autonomous.

Be interesting to learn more about regulations.
Will it be registered as an airplane, or car, or both? What type of license would the operator need? Pilot's license? Car license? Where is it legal to fly one? And most importantly, how will it be insured? I really don't see it "getting off the ground" in the foreseeable future. Jon.

takeoffs are optional; landings are mandatory.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
