The flying car does not exist, you say?

Leave me alone with my fantasies please.

That does look more practical than most of the designs I've seen. I'm guessing you still have to be a licensed pilot, at least. Since it's a gyrocopter I wouldn't think a helicopter license would be required. Still not the flying car described in The Puppet Masters (the one I want) but a step in the right direction.
