This is only going to change travel around New York for rich people.
Joby says the price of a flight from Manhattan to JFK airport will be about the same as a “premium car service”.
What constitutes a premium car service is up for debate,
but it appears to cost a minimum of $200, compared to $11.75 on public transport.
The Joby might be quieter than a helicopter, but for now, most New Yorkers will be stuck with the subway.

It would take that long to design them: "at least part of the reason Phelan was fired last week, according to news reports, was that Trump had given him an impossible and unnecessary assignment to build a new “Trump-class” battleship, the centerpiece of what Trump calls a “golden fleet,” before he leaves office in 2029."

I see nothing has changed in Vienna (I left in 2012).
I'm missing Café Central in this Sachertorte review though.
