SLF speaking: as a piece of SLF?

Actually, I think technically we're not that far from man-carrying drones. I think they can be kept stable quite easily (see how a high end DJI behaves in windy conditions) and can be made man-carrying (see Volocopter, still in development, but they're on a good way).

The question that remains is how to control them, and what license do you need to ride in one? (I'm saying ride, since it's obviously not a heli, but something highly computer controlled)
