i downloaded a skycar a while ago for flight simulator x, and its got all the stuff the skycar would do. just thought id say that.

i think its a very good idea, but in car mode, the engines at the side is what powers it, so can you imigine if someone went near it, theyde get sucked into it. but im sure paul has thought that through anyway.

the folding wings are clever, the vertical take off and landing is clever, annd the fact it is a car aswell, thats clever, you know something, if it had a fold out boat hull, this would be a modern chitty chitty bang bang.

I never knew 1980s science fiction would of been this.. accurate to now.

Goddamnit.
