    When the website posted renders and claimed that was the 1st flight, i knew we had problems. Also a quick googling showed no other hits. Like you can build a 45 foot tall helicopter and fly it without anyone else blogging about it.

    This plan was flawed from the start. Clearly the future is in some sort of hotel on a boat.

    Well, at least you admitted your mistake. Now to make it up to everyone, I think giving me a Rovio would show you're really sorry.

    Wow, I TOTALLY thought there really was going to be a hotelicopter, and this isn't just a snide email bragging sarcastically about how I never once thought it was a real project.

    Until airships that can go into orbit over Flouston Paradise come to fruition, perhaps it's best to either take a cruise, or just stay on dry land.


    Try stuffing 3-4 stars into this lump of shit.

    In order for this to be of much tourist fun, it would have to be part of a destination kind of vacation. Like the air train along the Orient Express or something.
