I should register there and tell him to google "Mizar Aircar"

here's info on the aircar for the record, lol.

The last line in that description is worth special attention. For in late 1973, Smolinski and Blake climbed aboard the Mizar prototype one last time and powered up the engines. No one knows what went on in the cockpit of the Mizar as it rolled down the runway during takeoff. But what is known is that very shortly after they left the ground, the \"self locking high-strength pins\" gave way and the flying car developers found themselves driving through the Southern California sky in a suddenly wingless, and decidedly non-airworthy, Ford Pinto.
The tragic death of the two principal developers resulted in the end of the Mizar project. So, still, the world awaits the first practical flying car. But there is always another one looming on the horizon, ready to take off from the technology underground and fly into the big time.

the mizar was supposed to be available with a parachute safety system, apparently the prototype didn't have it, oops.

hmmm the ricer fly-by now has new meaning. lol

I hope he knows what he's doing. Or he will end up like those two guys, and they were professionals.

Edit. I like how he thinks that, just because his interior looks like a cockpit. It was supposed to be a plane. :doh: lmao

"Luckily my family has a background in aviation (both my uncles have been baggage handlers for united airlines for 34 years), so I can get some input on how to go about constructing it."lolol

Just because of how he said that, I almost want to call out the BS flag. Do we have a BS flag smilely?
