Moller International (fka MLER)

[Po3sHare]

I just read an article, of which I will put a link below, about Ed De Reyes' EVTOL aircraft. The article references Moller. It is a very badly written article with many inaccuracies regarding VTOL, like claiming "In the early 2000s, the Moller International Skycar became the first non-helicopter vertical takeoff and landing aircraft to actually get off the ground". The author probably never heard of the Osprey, the Harrier or any of the many experimental VTOL's like the X-22.

Anyway. it seems like Ed De Reyes, Moller's former test pilot now has his own company that aims to get into the electric VTOL market. Any Moller fanboys want to comment on this?

It must be hard for you guys. Ed gave Moller a bit of credibility a couple of years ago, so you guys were quite taken with him. Now that he has committed to an electric aircraft, the one thing that fanboys unanimously bash, it must be quite a shock...

Ahhhh...old Ed. He invited me to Moller's one failed 'test flight' as his guest and the un-invited me after giving a fanboy a hard time. Good times. And I'm yet to be proven wrong. Randy will probably delete my post again...because anybody whose view is not Randy's view is labelled a troll....
