I like the comment from Dr Wright, who added that he would not be volunteering for an early flight: "I'd have to be taken on board kicking and screaming." - confidence boost for you brand right there!!

More seriously, maybe I won't fly Qantas again. Not sure I want to be on an A380 sharing airspace with these.

Are boot camps an early learning centre for skinheads?

Oh dear - I now see a future of these things flying all around 24/7. Will I ever see the sun, moon and stars once these things become common place?

Shame GFS Projects got bought up by some American defence company and got all secretive. They were developing real life flying saucers which generated lift using the Coanda effect.

They had concept art on the old website for something a similar size to this but with no exposed machinery which looked a lot cooler. I still want one.
