Looks like a good way to die very messily :eek:...If that's even a word!

Now all that said.............a flying motorcycle, almost as much fun as my old gyrocopter, I need one !!!!!

I saw a video a month or two that some company is working on with DARPA, I think, for a ridable quadcopter for the army. Supposed to carry a rider/driver and a couple hundred pounds of ammos/supplies. The idea was for rapid-reponse forward resupply. They showed it flying, but no rider yet.

I thought that's what this was supposed to be:

Now this one I like:

You could even put a parachute on it.
But I see the same problem with it as the hoversurf; open blades.
