FORUM FRIDAYS: birds and the future of aerial transit

 

I could recap what’s been happening on the Gondola Project Forum this week … or I could show you this cool Ted Talk about flying like a bird. I pick door 2:

and because it wont embed, check it out the intended video here: A robot that flies like a bird

 

Which leads me to this week’s exciting debate: What is the future of aerial transit? Currently the options include gondolas for short distances, planes for long distances, and helicopters for the wealthy, but technology never really stands still… does it?

 

 

 

Have you checked out the forum this week?
