    Cool, would be a great commute option and relatively easy to park. I'll get Santa to put it on his list.

    For a DIY, that's cool, although I don't know how you can get anywhere looking down all the time...

    That's a beaut. You'd still need a pilot's license to operate?

    Pretty cool.

    But...
    Maintenance? The average Joe Bloggs wouldn't maintain it correctly.
    Landing skills? Death toll would be interesting, also coupled with above lack of maintenance...

    It would be a cheaper competition to the Martin JetPack!
