Inventer of flying car dies.
Robert Fulton Jr. died today at the age of 95. If I got his name correct, he was the inventer of the "airphibian" one of the few working flying cars ever made. He was also a photographer, and interestingly, was present in 1923 for the opening of king Tut's tomb. I guess some people get to have all the fun.

The history channel did a show on this guy a while back, he was a very intelligent and bold man. Any guy who creates something that can kill them and intrusts there life in it has got balls.

Re: Inventer of flying car dies.
If people don't even know how to drive on a flat ground, what makes him think they can fly a car?
