    We can't cure cancer, or find Osama bin Ladin, but we can make airplanes invisible. That's fantastic.

    Your title makes no sense...generally a person's fear of flying revolves around 1 of 2 things:
    1: Fear of crashing
    2: Fear of heights

    If you make the plane transparent, then #1 makes them freak out more, cause they lose the little security that a "solid surrounding" gives them. You also allow them to see exactly how far away the ground is, therefor making #2 worse.

    Am I wrong?

    And since I fall under the #2 category I say...FARK YOU AIRLINES!

    I have to assume the title was meant sarcastically.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    That will depend on the location of said fly.

    If the fly lands on the shifter, I would say it is operating the vehicle, and subject to a speeding ticket. The policy radar will confirm the speed you're looking for.

    Maybe they could design one that keeps the flight on time?
