Ladies and Gentlemen this is called 'progress'.
The dinosaurs reigned for millions of years.
The helicopter will also become extinct. Until then the wonderful facility of door to door transport will be slowly and surely be under threat by citizens who prize peace and quiet over other peoples convenience.
However I can see a resurgence in helicopter flight as the road system in London comes under the same threat. Once there is 100% gridlock then some bright spark in the government will suggest that helicopters be the way of saving the nations commerce and he/she will be praised and knighted for thinking up such a radical method of transportation.

Don't dispare as market forces have a way of seeing sense in all this anti helicopter thing.

Just another view of this emotive subject.
