    This is obviously a gross Caracature!
  2. Strange part is, when you look at the original Aerobus demoes, it looked almost exactly like this.

    Did they actually build that thing, or was it just a conceptual image like they used to publish in Popular Mechanics?
  4. As I understand it, that was actually built. That's not a drawing, it's a photo.
  5. It looks more like the Skiway contraption they built on Mt. Hood in Oregon in the early 1950s. That used two actual city buses, somewhat modified: http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/ohq/108.2/tint.html
