I know it's not christmas yet...


...but I know what I want from Santa!

Moller Skycar


Once private air travel was the exclusive preserve of the rich and famous. Sadly, it still is, unless you happen to have the lion's share of half a million lying dormant in your bank account. The Skycar, though, has whipped the Firebox team into a collective frenzy with its vertical take off capability and vaguely enticing 380Mph top speed.
Unlike previous prototype Skycars, the M400 can comfortably seat four people, making a day trip to the south of France with your mates the equivalent of a two-hour blast down the motorway. That's when it goes on sale, of course, which isn't just yet.

Visit www.moller.com for more information.

If we pooled our resources do you think we might be able to afford one between us all?   Please?

Well, since the overall size indicates that the majority of the airframe is taken up with passengers, luggage and engines leaving it with a fuel capacity capable of getting from one neighborhood to the next, I care before I sign up for the maiden flight...

Oh, and avgas costs roughly twice JP derivants...batting...Ben
