This
continues to be an issue for me because it shows the persistence of a
bad idea.
Airplanes are subject to the laws of aerodynamics in spades. Autos rarely are. Here is the latest flying car. It weighs about 1,800 pounds with a driver (pilot?).
Someone is out of their mind.
In my neighborhood, in the Spring, we get wind gusts up to 60 mph and on the San Francisco Bay Bridge that is a sustained cross-wind wind speed many days of the year as any motorcyclist will tell you.
This car will be flying over the edge of the bridge with its wings folded up. Suicide into the Bay.
