I think that this guy has put together a (reasonably) usable design here...

He seems to have addressed many of the problems, with the "parachute type of air-car" design. The ground performance seems reasonable...it has a top speed of 90 mph, and decent 0 to 60 time. It doesn't have much of a "cabin", and I'm sure that their has to be some sacrifice in comfort, when riding in the cold and wet. The "mast" used in flight, seems to be a rather clever solution to the problem of deploying the wing for flight. I hope it catches on...his motivations seem honorable, I wish him good luck.

Airspeed so low you can get blown off the coast and not be able to get back.

like the idea and I'm sure his dad would be be proud if only he were alive........ I assume he's best friends with the ones that killed his dad. Thats special.
