    Or find some remote beach in HI then fly to main hotel.

    Have craft use Biofuels or lithium mode battery?
    Use Ducted Fans for Lift & Thrust.

  2. This is great. I'd love to see this refined to a more simplistic design. Somehow lose the wings and use another form of propulsion. Make it less bulky, and more like a real flying car. Still, awesome!
