There was a time when I was obsessed with the aerocar. And I looked into the practicalities of owning one.
Airside vehicle passes cost between £50 and 150 in the UK and depending on airport takeoff and landing can cost between £10-30. Pre-flight checks take between 15-45 minutes, taxi time 5-15 minutes.
While I think this idea is really cool, it is only really worth it from certain perspectives. Beat the traffic, well only if you spend an hour in the traffic. Save time, same argument, save fuel, definitely not.
If you have enough money and a long enough commute to buy one and for it to be worth it, you can probably afford afford a house nearer where you work.
I want one though, but definitely have no need for one.
