By the way, their job openings are all for B.S. and M.S. level (no Ph.D.), which seems a bit odd.
It's a coarse filter, but probably aimed at that effect.
I think that autonomous vehicles make flying cars possible. On one hand, learning to fly is difficult (the problem has a dimension more than driving on the surface) and people really do not like wreckage falling from the sky. So one needs a highly trained expert to pilot any flying vehicle, or a fully autonomous autopilot. The second thing is energy, a plane needs to handle a lot more energy than a car, simply becaus…

> Self-flying Meh. That would be taking the fun out of it, taking away the very point.

Flight takes less energy than you might think. The real issue is landing in city's. You need virticle takeoff and landing which creates a lot of issues.

A cessna gets between 15mpg and 22mpg.
What problems do flying cars solve? I know it looks cool but is there some huge thing that would get solved with this?
