It's like the early days of the world-wide-web but with aeroplanes.
Back then when creating global web sites became easy many people would set up a web site with "Send me $1". Although nobody got rich out of it, It did take quite a while for it to grow tired.
Crowd funding is good for speculative tech or hard done by cases, but I I still don't understand how it can be used to get something utterly uninteresting like an aeroplane off the ground, unless you've stranded your passengers and ask them to pay for the fuel to them get home.
