the Pelican combines buoyant and aerodynamic lift in a different way from other lighter-than-air and hybrid vehicles, and is designed to be more efficient, more flexible and easier to handle on the ground
Yeah right, heavier-than-air light aircraft, gliders and micro lights are all hard to handle on the ground if the wind is above 25kts; this p!ece of sh!t will be even more of a handfull! Take yesterday and today accross the UK, 210/25G30 for most of the 48hrs - just how easy is this thing going to be to handle on the ground.

Lighter-than-air as had been said before is 'snake oil' that comes around as often as that tired carousel of slides of you as a 4 year old at your parents house...

Try investing cash into cold-fusion or anti-gravity and you would stand a better chance of success... Michael J Fox hoverboard anyone?
