The Long, Weird History of the Flying Car

People of my generation (and even those less ancient) often ask, “Where is that flying car that I was promised as a kid?” I know I figured we'd have them by now, but hell, we're just closing in on driverless cars (something I'm really looking forward to – why couldn't we have had them when I had that godawful 35mi each way commute to downtown Chicago?)

Anyway, this is from Popular Mechanics.
