Doers Builders and Positive People

Well, maybe…

By Paul Crowe

PALVPersonal Air Land Vehicle (PALV) In another attempt to show what wonderful things we can do with technology without dealing with that sticky issue of the actual drivers on the road, a Dutch entrepreneur is developing a combination 3 wheel vehicle that has a sort of built in gyrocopter enabling it to take off and fly. Is the technology available? Sure. Can this be built? Don’t see why not. But just think about your last drive down the street and consider what would happen if those drivers could fly, too. Combine road rage with air rage and watch the dive bombing begin, if they can keep from crashing into houses and crowded streets even when they don’t want to. The reason we don’t have flying cars is not lack of technology.

    This will be the best invention in many years.As a microlight Pilot and a driver ,I agree you get some pretty useless pilots and drivers both.But we still drive.And some of us do it without any daily accidents.When I fly….I can almost relax,because the skys are empty.If this vehicle was available to me, then i would definately use it daily.Unlike driving, flying can be unforgiving and useless pilots would be a danger to themselves moreso than others.A probation period for carrying passengers will need to be in place.
