First ever commute to work in flying car


Recommended Posts

Actually, I suspect the first "commute" was much earlier in a Molt Taylor Aerocar:

Here's Robert Cummings with his Aerocar, which he also used in his TV show:

I think it likely that either Molt or Robert would have commuted way back then.

 

However, the link probably does show "the first-ever eVTOL commute." But with only 20 minutes of flying time, it's not very practical, and they didn't say how long it takes to recharge.

20 minutes at 63 MPH?: All for 83 grand? If anyone lives that close to work, get a really hot-looking car for those $$$...

 

Looks like the perfect case of the `not yet ready` if you ask me. I wouldn't buy any car that was restricted to 63 mph, much less one with only a 20 minute range. And my motorcycle banks INTO corners, and beats most traffic too!
