In the december/january issue of ALFA magazine I have an article on personal flight and our surprising shortcomings in the area, so I thought I'd post this fresh new discovery as a bonus. In the article I mention a few of the new additions to the personal flight game, including the australian Hover-bike - which will be awesome once they figure out how to keep it from flying off uncontrollably into space - and the ridiculous but guaranteed splash horror in case of crash; the E-Volo multicopter. However, this ZERO helicopter designed by Hector del Amo is also simplistic, smart, elegant, hopefully feasible and won't leave you looking like a certain drink consisting of vodka and tomato juice in case of a crash. You might catch a bit of a draft, and the shell is not exactly Mercedes Benz protective, but what the hell - I'll take my sunday afternoon air stroll in this any day of the week, including sunday.
To check out my article on personal flight, pick up the latest issue of ALFA wherever magazines are sold (Norway).
