   Climbed out like a rock...it :)

   It is really dumb to design a flying car with all the
   bumper, head lights and crash requirements.
   Flying motor cycles make a lot more sense.

   That's just a still shot of it a few feet off the
 ground...here's the
   video of the ENTIRE first
 flight...www.terrafugia.com/First_Flight_A.html

   And, as you said, Paul...it NEVER got out of ground
 effect!

  That still puts it one step above the Moller Skycar,
 which never even got
  off the tether...

 But how sad is it, really, when the best you can muster is
 to say "Well, I'm
 better than the Moller Skycar..."???  Talk about
 setting the bar low...

 Hello,

 A french way to roadable aircraft :
 Two seater, only 40 mph on road or airborne... but well off
 ground effect !

 still make sense.)

Never be street legal in the US.

Wow, for a bunch of experimental advocates, you guys are being pretty
harsh.  I have no doubt that the vehicle has enough power to get out of
ground effect.  I think they are going for special status as a 4 wheel
motorcycle to make it street legal.  They just need to get the price down to
closer to $100k, or make it faster.
