I doubt from a safety standpoint they will be allowing this in our airspace- - people wreck their cars all over the place, the last thing we need is cars falling out of the sky, or more ways to die. -- Doubt the FAA will ever greenlight this..at least here in America doesn't seem feasible. Possibly in 30 years - -when there's an automated version -- ie set coordinates and it handles all routing/air-traffic control mechanisms -- think google auto-driving car for personal aircrafts... that would be huge.. but still a distant dream.

I think getting it street legal will be a much bigger battle.

There's no reason that this couldn't be certified as a LSA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-sport_aircraft).
