Williams X-Jet
Why the hell don’t we have these all over the place:
This thing is called a Williams X-Jet and it was built by Williams International for US military in the 1980’s, and is one of the most awesome things I saw lately. I mean, how totally fucking win is that:
Someone should take that design, apply some modern engineering to it, make it half the size, more fuel efficient, put a cap on how high it can fly, and start selling it as the new segway kind of bullshit. It even steers the same way. Same kind of people who now own a segway, would shell out big bucks for a personal J-Jet thing.
Seriously, when are we going to get those damn flying cars they were promising us since like the 70’s?

looks cool, but can you see people colliding mid air in these things…lol! Most can’t operate machinery firmly placed on ground I would seriously be afraid seeing what they would do in the air.

Damn it looks cool but that only 10 ft off of the ground thing kinda blows its usefulness. too many trees around here.
