Chesterfield Observer, VA - Flying cars, so to speak, will be arriving soon to a locality near you, says Mary Ashburn Pearson, a project manager for Delta Airport Consultant, which advises the county’s airport. Pearson spoke last month to the Chesterfield County Planning Commission to call commissioners’ attention to the trending emergence of eVTOL vehicles, “which take off and land more similarly to a helicopter than to a fixed-wing aircraft.”... The eVTOL market – companies manufacturing “air taxis” and a variety of flying vehicles –appears to be booming. The Fairfax-based Vertical Flight Society has published an updated directory of eVTOL aircraft since 2016, and it currently lists 769 small-scale flying vehicles across five categories.

It will all be fun and novel, until they start dropping out of the sky on fire on to people, their homes, businesses and cars. The liability insurance for these devices should rightfully be cost prohibitive.
