When I was a kid, I had a certain vision of the future. To date, reality has only fulfilled about 25% of that vision. Where are our flying cars? Where is our unified world government? Where are the giant airships that making flying around cities a sightseeing adventure? It seems the light gliders of yesteryear are on their way back and with current advances in technology, they're safer, faster, quieter and much more ecologically sound. The Aeros company wants to make their airships available for commercial use on short range trips. They can fly at over 150 knots while expending far less fuel and provide a smoother ride for those that get air sick. The luxury liners can make that trip from Los Angeles to Vegas feel like you just spent the last hour in a posh hotel rather then locked down in an uncomfortable seat surrounded by strangers. I'm pretty much sold and would like to know how much a ticket would cost.
