If it's Boeing then the wheels have already fallen off.

If it's Boeing, I ain't going.

Noting traffic challenges in many conjested Asian cities, what could possibly go wrong in the sky?

Sounds like they plan on doing that by boat?

Question. When the Fifth Dimension, in 1967, sang ' Up, up and away, my beautiful, my beautiful balloon', I got the feeling flying cars were on the immediate horizon. Why was there no discussion *at all* about flying cars with all this talk about 'my beautiful balloon being up, up and away? Probably due to everyone being on weak drugs in 1967. I was 12 years old so not being on drugs I could see flying cars becoming reality by like 1968 when I turned 13. Try and follow this. Today there are much stronger drugs which accounts for the ongoing discussion of flying cars being on the brink of reality. So to answer my original question:

Stronger drugs = flying cars.

It's a trap!

Will doors be included?

Thankfully, they will be in Asia and not the USA.
