Kids, this is why you don't play with fire... without proper awareness of what can go wrong, and safeguards needed when using homemade pryotechnics.

No point screaming over a fire that was bound to happen.

The WW2 ancestor of modern Angry Birds.

I wouldz like ze thousand year Reich warrenty, bitte.

US Army VTOL concepts deserve mention, including the WASP (William Aerial Systems Platform). It's basically a turbofan engine with a man on top, steered by body weight!

This is a T-60 tank strapped to a glider. Totally awesome.

Landing was a problem though, the test pilot injured his spine on landing.

Agreed. When I looked at the Moller M400's specs and read 8 rotary engines... OMG.

Anyways I am pretty sure I have seen a hexcopter or something carry a person quite successfully. Those Germans are amazing.

I love that canard foreplane concept. Looks like a roadgoing Eurofighter!

That thing... looks like it could exist in WW2 as a Secret Weapon of the Luftwaffe... lol.

This thing looks radical for 1934! It's a flying wing.

The best. Onwards to Vulgaria!

Wait I tested this equation on the street and something is odd.

I looked under a Donk and I didn't see any Brass Bulges. What gives, is the car female or something?

Ramming a freaking airplane in an armed confrontation with drug dealers. Not even Tom Clancy thought of that!

I wonder how many donuts will it do before either

i) The batteries run out
ii) The tires explode

The only thing missing from a King Pod is the HAL9000 concierge AI system...

It does have a separate luggage storage compartment, as the article sayeth.

Planewatching is so fun to us laymen but I guess for those on the mile high club, they're sick of watching those boring metal tubes and would prefer to drink 8 bottles of vintage champagne per flight instead.

Hahahaha the comment plus your reply is so funny!

Better watch out for suspicious stains before you close yourself inside Patrick :)

Starcraft!

They can start naming vehicles Zerg, Protoss, Terran Battlecruiser and it would sell tremendously well. Until Blizzard Entertainment's lawyers come a calling :)

If they could have jury rigged a rigid mounting this would be so much more badass. Agree, cool concept but meh execution.

LOL YES
