Loved the description of the Moller Skycar in Atlantis found.
I want one! Where is my local dealer? :P
Seriously though, does anyone know about this - experimental airplane, author's pipe dream, etc?

I myself would love to own one! (As do a lot of people)
The Skycar is still being developed, but I do believe you can "reserve" one. They aren't cheap though.
Popular Mechanics had an article on it once, I'll look.

WOW... Love the stats! That would be COOOOOOL for a Vegas run.
HOWEVER.....
Check out the list price of nearly $1M each... and THAT is for a dealer price, that's not the MSRP. :o
Bummer. Guess I won't be owning one any time soon.

The January 2005 issue of Popular Science has a nice photo of the Moller skycar on the cover. The related article is about 5 different ideas for personal aircraft. w:
