you could get a turbine legend kit & be doing those numbers much sooner, if you could find about 20kts of wind going down a runway

The FAA is currently working on certification.
Boeing has been approached on, and is studying the feasibility of, mass production.
It is likely that it will first fly in Asia, Korea has a web site dedicated to Molier's aircar.
Japan wants in, the state of California has pre orders in.
In '79 they were predicting 15 years or more, it has taken longer.

Preorder contracts expire Dec. 31st 2006 so look for something big to happen before that date ... don't know if it will be go or no but something has to happen.

Look here also.

Ok... this guy has lived down the road from me for years. He has never built a flying car. The pictures of the one on the website are a fiberglass shell with no guts at all... A local bodyshop here built and painted it for display. There is nothing about the shell that could be used to make an aircar.

He is rumored to have people lined up to buy this shell that is incapable of flight. He is rumored to have em lined up for a million plus each....

production was to be started 3 years ago now in the huge factory that he was negotiating buying the land for from my city. It kinda is dragging a little since he has not done anthing toward making it happen except talk about it and...

have the very nicely painted shell built that he can display.

He has made several flying lawnmowers over the years that struggle around on a tether.

I believe that he knows that people would like to believe as much as he does.

The main source of his income is that he was a land speculator in Davis.
