How often do you wish to fly when you're stuck in a traffic jam? This is the invention to answer your wish. It's a wonderful idea, but I think there are still too many questions about this ambitious project to fully support it.

Uber is not the first with this idea because there are small companies or enthusiasts that made experiments on hovercrafts. We are not far from the future when taxis are flying above our heads.

I've never heard of those, but that's nice to know. It would be better if Uber can work with those groups. They usually have found certain theories the big company didn't, but they lack the resources to experiment further. Just like Caradoc... See more

It's a very cool idea but I don't know how much I like the idea of flying in an autonomous transport without someone there to troubleshoot if something goes wrong. Perhaps by then though, I will have more faith in that kind of technology.

In reality, we are relying heavily on autopilots. Did you know that most commercial airplanes are flown with autopilot when it reaches a cruising altitude?
