People choose to live away from airports for a reason. When the sky above your house in suburbia is a corridor for taxis and commerce, the residents living below will become vocal. If it only exists in cities (people live in urban areas, too) then you’ll have to commute to catch your air taxi.
I’m curious how this will all play out...
