    7 people probably died in car accidents in the last hour, I guess cars are too dangerous to drive too.

        Please explain to me how this type of aircraft is any more vulnerable to crashing or pilot error than any other.

            Are we talking about eVTOL aviation technology in general or this specific airframe and idea? I’m not claiming this specific design is good or the use case is where we should be spending our R&D time on this tech.

            What I am saying is that 90% of the responses in here amount to “this is dumb because rich people will use it, build trains.” If that’s the best we can’t expect from the dedicated technology community on this website it’s going to go nowhere fast.
