Why sit in traffic on your daily commute when you can take your Moller Skycar   Wink

...

You can see the skycar for your self here -

I'm using the Moller Skycar which I found here on simV and the ORBX Portland freeware addon, everything else is default.

Thanks for looking  Smiley

Thanks!
You might be waiting a while though, it's been in development for 40 years and so far the prototype has only hovered 15ft above the ground!

I have a more zoomed shot but I prefered the far out one because it captured more of the commuter traffic and the city behind which I was traveling from. I'll post the rejects in the showcase =]

Cool shot, Dave.....I was hoping to see the Skycar in this comp. Cool Cool
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Thanks Chuck!
I've seen so many documentaries about Paul Moller and his sky cars so it was the first thing that came to my head! I hope one day he finally succeeds sadly though I'm not holding my breath =/

The Moller was my first thought, the 797 BWB was my second......
Neat shot! Cool

I'm thinking that the Moller would be a nice dual purpose vehicle to have around the house, especially in the fall. 

It'd be one very cool leafblower! Cheesy
