I was dreaming of something along the line of the ESTOLAS. That is cool.
-But add the free lifting power of an aerodynamic hot-air balloon (or with add-on packs for certain situation) by capturing and channeling turbine exhaust to add extended hover times.
-Retractable sails would also direct free air energy into the direction you want the thing to go.

Cars and train cars.
Dawson Creek, British Columbia in August of 1961. My mom, two bothers and I were traveling to Fairbanks, Alaska on the ALCAN Highway in our brand new Chevy station wagon. My dad was going to meet us there.
