   Hi All,    
       ...Greets from my Telegram app!   
      
   "Bugatti-Cessna lovechild!" FLYING CAR completes 35-min test flight   
      
   http://kolico.ca/mpg/Flying_car.mp4   
      
   The BMW-powered AirCar has completed a 35-minute test flight between two   
   airports in Slovakia. Its creator claims it could fly two passengers up to   
   200kg for 1,000km at 2,500 meters with a cruising speed of 170km/h - and has   
   cost less than $2.5mn to develop.   
      
   Morgan Stanley predict the sector could explode to $1.5TN in value by 2040,   
   while Hyundai have already declared the concept forms ?a part of their future."   
      
   Comment: I dont see this taking off. Just watch the suspension; very rough   
   ride on a highway.. no wonder it is driving slow.  No bumpers, probably no   
   airbags.. all that would add too much weight.  Oh.. and all that hydrolics..    
   leaks leaks leaks, or if it's airpumps.. it's still a lot of extra moving   
   parts that could fail.
