helicopters - It has always seemed like helicopters have defied the reality of physics. Floating, hovering, it seems that they float against all that denies what can happen, reality, fantasy. The Osprey was even further from reality by floating and flying like an airplane. Nothing in nature is like this vehicle. We are going to stick with what has proven to work. The classic helicopter, we also support the coaxial rotor concept, which increases speed. We will watch, we will learn. Less [+/-]

 Fruity ExhibitionsThere is always a dark side to mega cooperations like Chiquita. I just read an article in Forbes that their profit jumped 46% the second quarter of 2009. Of course that makes sense when most families are buying more of this cheap fruit to make it on a limited budget. Comment by helicopters |
 Personal Transportation PodsI'm interested to see how this works out in the Los Angeles area. It seems that someone would try to find a way to steal them or could even accidentally wreck one. It sure would be great on our smog in this area. Except, driving a shopping cart doesn't sound fun to me? Comment by helicopters |
 Making Snow in SummerLooking forward to the snow machine to make an appearance again out here in Los Angeles. It look like it's going to be another scorcher out here and snow would bring me happiness. James Comment by helicopters |
 Super Cheap TravelI was running the math on megabus and it comes out to about 8 cents a mile to travel with them from Chicago to Kansas City. ($41 one way) That's an amazing deal. I checked for routes in the Los Angeles area and it doesn't seem to operate anymore out west anymore. I'm sure many former customers will miss them. Another victim of the down economy I'm sure.

 Fold-Flat HelicoptersFound some more information on this: Hummel 2004 // The „Hummel“ („bumble bee“) is a light helicopter for maximum two passengers. It can be used for passenger transport (air taxi), as well as for e.g. emergency transports like organs or units of stored blood and of course for conventional tasks of a helicopter like monitoring (e.g. coast guard, police, army, scientists) and to be mobile. The tandem rotor design guarantees a more efficient aircraft performance as the main-tail rotor design, without wasting fuel. |
 David Borman's Sea Phantom...I think the Focus 21 France has just as much of a chance of succeeding as this. Not enough commercial interest in this concept to "get it off the ground". Comment by helicopters |
 Where is Dennis Rodman Now? Alm...Sometimes I miss seing that guy. Comment by helicopters |
 Dangerous RunwaysThis you would also enjoy the top 10 scariest airports over at WA today. Some more great pics like this. Comment by helicopters |
 Mini Remote-Controlled ChoppersLook forward to them perfecting coaxial rotors on the real commercial helicopters. Will increase speed significantly and increase efficiency. Comment by helicopters |
 Snuggies for BabiesThis scares me, it reminds me of an old Alien movie when the Alien ripped out from the inside.....creepy.. Comment by helicopters |
 Segway of the SkyIt looks like a trash compactor for people, is it just me? I think ole Pete is throwing away the odd single charter helicopter concept for something that doesn't need air anymore. Just a few days ago I read this: Pete Bitar, the president and CEO of Anderson-based Air Buoyant, said he has assembled a team to pursue the $30 million Lunar X Prize.“I am only leading the team and pulling together funding,” Bitar was quoted as saying. Google Inc. is bankrolling the $30 million contest. The bulk of the prize will go to the first private company that can land a robotic rover on the moon and beam back a gigabyte of images and video to Earth. Contest rules require that all teams be at least 90 percent privately financed to compete. The first team to complete the mission before 2012 will be awarded $20 million. Comment by helicopters |
 Heli-YogaIsn't it kind of funny that you're flying in a helicopter (3 miles to the gallon) to find your "ecological self". It would be like driving a hummer to a Earth Day event. Did they fully think through this concept?? Comment by helicopters |
 Britney Spears Police Stand-OffIt's good to know that the media helicopters were there for us, otherwise we might have missed some momentous piece of history. Thank you media for covering today what will be written in the history books of tomorrow....oops, wrong article I am commenting on. Comment by helicopters |
 Insect Inspired FlightI prefer flying helicopter prototypes any day to just concept vehicles. Of course, it opens up our mind to the possible future of flight and what can happen if we allow our imagination to translate from our ind onto paper. Hope he can come up with something of practical use. Comment by helicopters |

 Unmanned Rescue HelicopterHow do you get injured people onto an unmanned aircraft? This seems as smart as bringing a unmanned ambulance to someone's house to pick them up in case of an emergency. Maybe that's good if they are trying to save their insurance company some money?? Comment by helicopters |
 Helicopter HotelI've come to the conclusion this hotel is out of business. They have no website and Google Maps can't seem to locate it. If this just me or has this place disappeared like the island in the show Lost? Comment by helicopters |
 Helicopter HairWhen I look at this it reminds me more of the Statue of Liberty then blades on a helicopter. A standard helicopter only has 2 blades while the preferred charter helicopter has 3 blades for less vibration. Never seen a helicopter with 10 blades, doesn't work. Comment by helicopters |
 Police Spy DronesSunbather is at 4:46 and it is totally staged. This helicopter concept seems like it would be good for NFL stadium games (cheaper than the blimp). If they can get a better video camera on here with 70x optical zoom with solid image stabilization (like the Panasonic SDR-H80) then the Secret Service and FBI would be interested in this product. Of course you also need a flying time for this helicopter of at least 1 hour to make this feasible for military applications. Comment by helicopters |
