fascinating, may the odds be ever in our favor
A retired General Dynamics director, previously worked in San Diego, is exploiting illegally US monitoring satellite to harass normal US civilians…
When it comes to the flying vehicles, there is a problem I often see.
While the guy mentioned quiet travel, they are still very noisy.
Now imagine many if them flying around above your head.
Something else that I see that could pose an issue is that the blades are often exposed, which is clearly a danger.
Yes, people will be careful to begin with, but as they get used to such things, people are often more relaxed and tend to make mistakes or too many risks.
The space required to land many of them might also be an issue.
There might be some kind of limit on how close you can land one vehicle next to another or perhaps a building which will, of course, increase the space needed.
I'm not sure enough things have been considered when it comes to such things that will create more problems than needed.

Be the unbiased newspaper that I signed up for 7 years ago not this
Brics have too much to overcome to make it work.
Does anyone believe this message from “The Economist “ ?!?!?
The thing with US elections is that Americans not only vote for their own country and decide its future, American voters decide the destiny of half of the world. Whether GOP wins or the Democrats, I hope the President is a real statesman, and not a crackhead like Trump who was bent on breaking his own country and cause riots like Jan 6, only to maintain his personal ego…
I manage an almost 100 acre land of my family in Colombia's central mountain range and I'm trying to get sponsorship to do a reforestation project for conservation and trapping CO2 instead of selling it for developing purposes, but so far there is little to no interest – how will this work in the future when land is no longer available?
Those drone taxis will soon replace Amazon trucks
When this war comes and mark my words it will come sooner then you think ..Me and my family will head to the IceWalls of Antarctica … see you there
I’m pretty sure that’s what oceangate said about certifications😂😂😂
