Take A Ride on My Flying Saucer




You could hear about the innovative new pasta sauces that we are developing or the really tasty and different salsas and table sauces that we are developing, but this is even more exciting. I went for a tour of a flying saucer factory yesterday. You may not have realized that there were flying saucer factories, but there is one. It is in Davis, CA at http://www.moller.com/. Dr. Moller has been making UFO's for 40 years. He now has two main vehicles. One is an aircraft that can fly either vertically or horizontally called the skycar 400. That one will go for around $1 million when it hits the market in a few years. It is interesting because it will get almost 20 mpg and travel over 200 mph, but you can land it in your backyard. This one looks like a space age aircraft with rotating engines.

The one that you can buy right now and for which dozens of people have already put deposits is the 200G. This model will be avaible by the end of next year and will cost about $90k or so. It really could probably fly 50 to 100 feet off the ground and travel at 100 mph, but they are putting software in it so you can only fly 9 feet off the ground (otherwise they would be slogging through years of FAA paperwork). It is kind of a gas guzzler, but has a cool flying saucer look and is safe due to redundant systems and engines.
