1831: Donroe Doctrine

Zapata Air Scooter, Moller Skycar and Aviation Fads

The history of "flying cars" is explored, from the Zapata air scooter to the decades-long efforts of Paul Moller and his "Skycar." The hosts discuss the limitations of EVTOL technology, such as short battery life and licensing requirements. They conclude that most of these inventions are recycled publicity stunts that fail to provide a practical alternative to traditional aircraft or automobiles.
