That photo made me go all squishy happy inside. Wow. That is something else.

I confess that I almost agree with “Just Sayin” above. I presume the crane and cable are simply there to handle emergencies. However, they sure take away from the excitement — a bit like putting training wheels on Evel Knieval’s motorbike.

Does the Moeller Hoaxmobile come with that crane and the cables for lifting it and swinging it in a lazy circle above your personal “airfield”?

The other reason is that it’s not easy to market and get regulatory approval for a flying car. The sub-10-foot hovercar is a neat workaround.
