Flying Segway!!!

[dhugger]

I was just looking at that personal helicopter invented in CA and I came across a video from TechTV with an old military machine from the 1950's which works just like a Segway in flight. You lean in the direction you want to go. Click on the video link on the right of the screen: http://www.techtv.com/news/scitech/story/0,24195,3372941,00.html

Okay, LLC, here is your next challenge ;)

You know what, I see the flying platform at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos fairly frequently (we're members), and I never connected the Segway and it together. They've got a video of it playing showing the guy leaning around to get it to go where he wants it. Its pretty big, though. Maybe one day we'll get Segway sized things that can float a few inches above the ground!
