[quote=Anonymous]Flying cars exist but are not the cheapest and most efficient solution. If you have enough money to buy a small airplane, you can buy one. Like AI, they are likely to have huge environmental externalities and the infrastructure is lacking for ramp-up. For example, air traffic control, landing places, and pilot training/licensing I worked on investigating the economics of a related industry. One of the biggest issues nobody could place a value on was never having clear skies anywhere anymore. The ultimate version of flying cars would make users like heliskiers. You would have access to lots of places and flying cars could be present in high volume in the entire visible sky in most places. I personally think that would suck and we need to solve our earthbound transport and congestion issues, not move them to the sky.[/quote]
