    I can just see all the idiots flying around in those, people thinking they're top gun or something ripping the wings off in some high G maneuver, then the family sues the company for way too much for their stupidity. We've got enough stupid rich people (just do a search for wrecked sports cars), last thing we need is cheaper flying cars!
