As someone who is currently getting his pilot's license, I wouldn't be comfortable sitting in a craft that abstracts flying to making "it seem like more of a car that is able to move in three dimensions." Regular pilots are well-versed in everything from weather, to emergency conditions, to physics of flight and practicing everything that can possibly go wrong. Not to mention interacting with other aircrafts. I really hope that they took this into account. It's very improbable that they didn't.

I am just scared that many drivers' feelings of entitlement being transferred to something that flies. People forget that a car is capable of injury and death and end up taking liberties behind the wheel. Then again, it might be psychologically different when you're actually flying.

I'm all for opening up aviation to a wider audience, but something doesn't smell right.

edit: Looks like they require a sport pilot license. I'm less worried now :)
