  • See, I told you I was Bandit drawing, I'm David Maman.

  • And uh this is my vision for the future in terms of urban mobility and, and flying cars.

  • So it's something like this.

  • Veto flight V toll is vertical takeoff and landing.

  • Uh So we can take off vertically.

  • Uh But then we can fly forwards or backwards and we can do that because we're taking off vertically using the turbofan engines and then those engines, the exhaust of them move so that we get for speed and then we move on to aerodynamic flight using the wing.

  • So the idea is that instead of having to go to an airport, you can take off from a, a Verti port or a heliport or maybe even your driveway and you can take off straight up and then transition into a Ford flight.

  • I think we do have a future which includes flying cars available pretty much everywhere in, in, in all the major cities.

  • So one of the, one of the issues we need to look at is are they going to follow pathways in the sky highways in the sky or are we just because the technology is there right now where they could self separate probably better than any aircraft controller could separate them.

  • And so we could just have a complete chaos theory of flying machines everywhere, self separating.

  • But then if you look outside the window, do you want to see a whole bunch of electric drones zooming around these things make noise?

  • So if you think about the broader sense of um environment, if anybody's heard a drone uh before you know the that that noise, this will be a completely new noise and a completely new sight again to walk outside and to hear that noise and to look up and see things lying around.

  • What I like to say is we're literally page one chapter one of war and peace at the moment in urban mobility.

  • O.

See, I told you I was Bandit drawing, I'm David Maman.
