It will also need to run on a water fuel cell. Because if they ran on fossil fuels the world would be depleted of fuel in 3 days.

i saw Molt Taylor's aerocar at oshkosh a few years back, the flying car has already been done.

But flying cars will never be available for the masses as long as you have a steep learning curve to learn to fly them.

You can just about train a chimpanzee to get a cadillac down the road.

tain't so with an aeroplane.

I think safety would be the primary concern and licensing drivers, but now-a-days the huge airline jets are all pretty much auto pilot, you most flip switches to fly the plane instead of actually controlling it yourself, in time you could get the same technology into a car. Would be a while though until the technology and laws are all up to date to make everyday travel possible and useful.
