Yeah, but there's no point in fuel efficiency when we're talking about a snail's pace, unless it can be scaled up so huge that bulk shipping can be efficiently accomplished. Totally pointless for human travel.
I was excited for the coaxial helicopter the Russians were developing. Conventional helicopters are something like 30% less efficient than fixed wing, and coaxial reduces that somewhat due to cancelling the need for a tail rotor.
