I don't think that "this is what your children will be driving !" is true. They have been saying that for a long time. It still hasn't happened. One of the main reasons it won't happen is... think about how many miles per gallon one of those will get.

@VB , good point . I always thought when I was little it would be jet backpacks!

But on a serious note , how does this guy go from audio speakers to helicopters ? :blink:

"An inventor mostly known for his work with audio speakers is going to try to popularize the personal flying vehicle"

That phrase worried me a bit. But if it's airworthy it sounds cool.

I wonder how the AirScooter sounds in person. You would expect an inventor of audio speakers to produce a new product that would sound cool.
