Why things seem to work in a certain manner and nobody can explain you why and how, but they work.
Why does the reality ignore the laws of phisics as we studied them and does things the way it wants despite our opposition?
Maybe it has to do with esoteric and God and the fact that we haven't fully understood yet his laws and the way they work, but as soon as someone understands one of the laws claims is his, so we have Newton's law, but Newton dodint promulgated it, he is not the law maker, just a lawyer that understood it and explained it to us.
How many other laws are out there that we still consider them miracles???
Rmember once upon the time they were burning alive those that knew phisics and chemics as devilish people, today we clasify those that understand things we don't and consider them utopic, as mere dreamers, uncoprehended "genius" and as idiots anyway.
We made progress as society, we don't burn them anymore, we just mock them!
And the day they prove us wrong and they are right we worship them and name the new discovery after their name...
Humans are really weird!
Stop dreaming and start doing something about your dreams.
You can't afford a cozy flight machine??
Beat them at a fraction of the price buying my plans online and building slowly piece by piece your Terrafuggia competiton all terain flight vehicle, my Fanpusher, 3 vehicles in one, anfibious ESTOL plane, fast cruiser coross country and A1 legal road licensed motorcycle with the click of a button.
With less than 50K and a lot of week-ends in one year you can drive from home to the field, take off and go wherever you see fit, land on another field, than drive to downtown. Range 2500 miles.
For cheaper persons I have finished another model that can be up and fly in les than 10.000 USD, will post plans for sale same place by the end of this week, plywood, cloth, motorcycle engine (100 hp or more) tools you find at the hardware store, ESTOL, anfibious, but folding the wings is manual, in 10 minutes you convert it from plane to motorcycle and viceversa. Range 800 miles.
By Christmas I plan to post a nanoflyer convertible that coud be ready to fly within 5000 USD, still work in progress, a slow mover for fun only, or small commuting jobs within 200 miles.
Don't wait the dream to come to you, make it happen. When I first started to buid my helicopter, my wife went nuts ans she asked me if I think it is the right time to start such a project.
I told her it's never the right time, either you do it or you don't.
I did it!
Still building thou, but thigs are moving towards the first flight, and when done I will publish those plans too!
Biplan with the wings in tandem, stable as a truck on a road, cannot enter in a spin on it's own nor induced, but it has limitations on diving angle, better not accentuate too much...
Take off with regular chord angle at 300 Km/h, top speed 700 Kmh;
Take off in ESTOL configuration with maximum thickenss chord on variable geometry wings 40 Km/h in 50 meters, max speed 80 Km/h.
Wings geometry variable in flight.
Once landed the wings fold pneumatically and the whole machine will be as big as a camper but legal size to drive on streets, and the total weigth empty is below 400 Kg thus can be registered as a A1 license vehicle (motorcycle, tryke or light quadricycle) drivable on streets, so you can land out of the city boundaryes, fold your wings and drive in the city to downtown.
At that size finding a parking might be a problem, but for the rest... you go out of your garage, drive to an empty field out of the city, unfold, take off, and no highways needed to go long distances, all you need is fine weather.
Operating conditions:
No bad weather, no storm, no deep mud, no acro, no aerobatics.
ESTOL strips on anything, the wells are huge and can take unprepeared fields, gravel, sand, grass, snow, ice, on deep fresh snow operate like on water with the gears up, on water can land on waves as high as 2 meters if the distance in between the waves is more than twice the lenght of the plane and if there is no stormy wind.
The fan/propeller is protected for most cases of water / sand ingestion on normal weather conditions.

This is from a real case, of many:
Step one, invented marvelous product.
Step 2, done prototyping "lab" ones to test, on family money, friend free work, stolen materials, junkyard, whatever you see fit.
Step 3, found some ANGELS (family members, friends) that put some little savings into the incorporation papers and became partners, since they helped anyway and beleive in the product.
Until here all is fine!
Here is where the shit hits the fan:
Step 4, hanging around like crazy to demonstrate the potential to clients and venture funds (banks don't even open you the door)
Clients pretend you have already sterted production and somebody elese already bought your product first so they can trust you, Venture capitals require that you are revenue ready, that is you didn't started production but clients already signed some orders trusting your lab prototypes.
End of the games, here is where most fresh ventures die!
Solutions :pack what you have and go hit them hard and often, how???
Step 5 Find some clients that would sign you PRO FORMA contracts conditioning the purchase on your machine performing as promised.
Find some distributors that would sign you the same.
WARNING, a pro forma contract becomes a full contract the second they placed the first order.
NOW you are SEMI revenue ready. You need to start production first, but still no money.
Step 6 Go to the investors and show them your business plan, teaser, term sheet and the rest, than show them your contracts, and tell them you don't want their money NOW, all you want from them is a commitment that they would fund you IRREVOCABLE if you start production, that is also a pro forma, it is conditioned.
But you still don't have the little money you need for the first units so you become revenue ready...
Step 7 Now you take all the proforma to another Angel - Broker - Bank, and keep nagging them untill one says YES, sell 1% of your company for the minimum necessary to "ignite the mechanism", say 100 I.O.U. (Invented money) showing them you sell later to the investors 20%, but not for 2000 I.O.U. that would be same price per %, since you have them already promised you they will buy 20% for 100.000 I.O.U., that raises the price of 1% from 100 to 500, in no time (a few months), high risk, high and fast return.
Step 8 The moment you sold 1% for 100 I.O.U, your proforma conditional venture capital loses the conditional pro forma status, you complyied, thus they MUST, by contract, fund you. Meanwhile make as manny untis as you can and sell them to anybody you can (forget your pro forma contractors for a moment)
That makes you: revenue ready and with comerical product on the market.
Step 9 Voila, now your proforma contractors must buy from you since you fulfilled their condition too, and that's bringing you some more orders, so when finally the Venture Capitals arrive (it takes time) you have market, orders and some delievered orders in your portofolio.
Step 10 Now you are in busines and must perform to buy back your shares from the investor in due time (or sell with him all the pack to another company/buyer, etc)
Warning, in between step 1 and step 10 there might pass even 10 years, it depends on how hard and often you knock at the doors, how many doors per day, how often you loose faith and give up for a while, etc.
Nowdays dudes and folks and pals and lads and chaps must learn how to pray for patience from God as a daily habit, the prayer goes this way:
Dear God, teach me the patience, and do it NOW!
I have a Microwave, but I only heat sometimes some cakes not to eat them cold.. I could try that with the icecream too... in reality I love cocking on wood stove or on the grill, much tastier, not to mention cooking itself that relaxes me and give me a chance to mix all that pases through my head, at my own risk...
I have a cell phone, always on, almost never ringing, for real comunications I use Skype, Ekiga or Linphone.
I have social media membership, twitter, facebook, ecademy, linkedin, viadeo, xing, and 5 e-mail addresses, but I only use them to boast my blog: www.wouldntcareless.blogspot.com, 3 times a day, several minutes each time.
Now what would I do for the rest of time???
Use my 3 computers to design in 3D Cad Cam the construction plans of my airplanes, helicopters, and put them on sale online, or...
walk my dog
hang around with my son
Visit friends
coock or grill,
daydreaming
helping somebody in need, not necesrelly somebody I know.
And that's another thing nowdays society is kindo'ff bannig, helping the needy, seems to be associated with terrorism!
