Hydrogen-powered 'flying car' to be used in emergencies
spacesailor replied to red750's topic in AUS/NZ General Discussion
WHY A flying car . The boat-car never sailed off , even though it worked well. The concept of having two uses , for one registration, doesn't work that well . ' motorhomes ' versus ' car & caravan ' , still works in favour of leaving the van on site , while sightseeing, in the car . ( or loosing your camp-spot, as it is vacant, while sightseeing in the motorhome ) . spacesailor -
