Flying cars, eVTOL air taxis, and autonomous vehicles are closer than most drivers realize. Author, private pilot, and automotive-industry veteran Tim Jackson joins Matt West to explore the past, present, and possible future of personal transportation.
Tim explains why more than 200 companies are pursuing flying-vehicle technology, how personal aircraft differ from commercial air taxis, and why automakers, airlines, and aviation manufacturers are investing heavily in advanced air mobility. The conversation covers Jetson-style personal aircraft, Joby Aviation, Archer, autonomous driving, Waymo, FAA regulations, noise concerns, traffic congestion, and the challenges of producing flying vehicles at scale.
Matt and Tim also examine how dramatically automobiles have improved in safety, emissions, durability, and technology—and whether drivers can embrace autonomous transportation without surrendering the freedom to drive.
Will flying cars finally fulfill a century of science-fiction promises? Tim makes the case that it’s no longer a question of if, but when.
