Sorry for the Back to the Future tangent there! I get emotional when I think of those movies. If anybody has any information regarding these apparant new flying cars I would love to hear all about it, I'm excited to see exactly how they work and whether or not the average consumer would be able to afford the costs of buying the car and then on top of that the elusive cost of running the sky-mobile(doubt that's what it's called, but it sounds pretty cool)
when i was a child i just heard of that from the book,they say that the flying car will be using at about 2000 years.now it's the 21century,but no flying cars flying on sky or floating up the earth.
it's just a dream.  .plane can do the same thing.
Flying cars would present a new problem, though: Traffic in the air. And that still doesn't really solve the problem of gas prices, either.
If it does, I think flying cars will adopt rules and regulations like those planes does...
And it's far more dangerous to see cars speeding in the air.. Don't you think so?
They are a great concept but there are some problems:
* Everyone would have to take a new driving/pilot test * They are unlikely to get the same MPG as a conventional car * A collision in the air would be even more catastrophic than one on the roads * The police would also need a fleet of flying cars to patrol the skies * From the governments opinion: "Where can we put speed cameras in the sky??? And what about the congestion charge???" 
they will need a pilots linsences not a drivers. and you know how much this thingy is going to cost! i can't even imagien and gas its going to go through it like candy and make the prices jump even more. ( And thats not fun ) but still it is going to be strange seeing the future become past...
I've seen that, it looks pretty cool. Flying to school and stuff? awsome. Tell me when I can buy.

Okay First off the flying car drives it self the makers already thought of all your problems the flying car is going to be alivalible for the average american but a little expensive the first people to get it Micheal jackson and some other famous people i think opera and the car only flys like around a tall house hieght not that tall because it has alot of weight due to the 4 turbine engines and it runs on regular gas its very slick panel for driving its just a screen with a map of the city you live in and a little thingy to type where you wana go and the chip has a internal map that it has little lines in it that it has to follow so it doesent crash it automaticly caculates how fast you have to go to avoid the other air plane so you dont crash so you will never crash in one of thesee cars....
i think half of that is wrong it may have a steering wheel im still not sure

Yeah but also look at this back in the time when there were no computers... guess waht people didnt think there would be personal compurters in evey home just big buisnesses and schools and other "big" places would have one... its a trend type thing people want one thing and its normaly the generation after its been invented not the current one... theres my 2 cents on that to the flying cars and stuff... the only way i cna think of having it work right is to have it all computered take off landing flying eveything! all computerized... of course you;d have to put tamper protection to have it not work if a certian door was taken of to remove certian wires so you could have it say fly into a building... but you'd also probably have the cars programed (yeah lots of time and money...) yeah thered be certian flying zones... such as what we have now the no fly zones... and *BLEEP*... but look at this yeah itd take time and money and stuff but it can and probably will be done...

haha i saw that car on top gear that wieghed 30 pounds and had fans on the side
look well realistic $60,000 tho, no thx
Flying cars, especially if they could (and were allowed to) go 350 miles per hour, would be going far too fast for a person to be able to control them safely. Consider how quickly accidents happen going 60-80 mph. The biggest safety risk for this would be human error, or running out of fuel mid-flight. The only way to avoid these problems would be to have the vehicle controlled completely by GPS/a computer. The computer could calculate the shortest route, detect any vehicles that may potentially pose a crash risk and plan the flight to avoid them, and calculate where and when a refuelling stop would be necessary. These vehicles would be too low-altitute to post any problems with planes, unless the plane was about to land (which shouldn't be a problem, as long as these things avoid airports).
But, as has been said, this, if any kind of flying car at all, probably won't be used by the commercial public for decades to come, if ever (currently taking a commercial flight would be much cheaper and more fuel efficient, while creating much less pollution and not creating a new crash/accident hazard to go with the whole flying car package..
I don't think flying cars will go 350, since people need to manage the speed at which they drive. Consider all the old people out there who can barely drive 20 in a 60 zone! There was someone really slow in front of me driving about 10km/h when the limit was 50. It drove me almost nuts considering I couldn't pass him. The old guy finally pulled over to his parking spot, but seriously, I think old people should get tested to see if they post a threat or burden to people who drive. That's just my opinion on the matter.
