Flying Cars & Traffic Jams in 3D: Orlando FL Takes to the Skies

 


Orlando, long known for its theme parks and soul-crushing I-4 gridlock, has decided it’s time to take the chaos to the skies. 

That’s right—authorities at the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority have announced plans to bring flying cars to the airport by 2028, finally delivering on the futuristic dreams promised by bad 1950s sci-fi movies and The Jetsons.

But before you start prepping for your high-flying commute, there’s a slight hitch: there’s no money to build any of this.

The Grand Plan (With No Budget)

The project involves constructing a “vertiport,” a fancy word for "place where people will definitely crash their brand-new flying cars." 

However, since Orlando didn’t exactly plan for this in the budget (because, why would they?), officials are now looking for private sector partners to fund this audacious leap into the air. 

In other words, rich people will own the sky while the rest of us still suffer on I-4.

Flying Cars: Because Two-Dimensional Traffic Jams Weren’t Enough

Unlike the gas-guzzling winged abominations from past concept cars, today’s flying vehicles are all-electric, with multiple drone-like rotors that allow for precise takeoffs, landings, and near-miss midair collisions. 

The vertiport will have dedicated access to public roads—because nothing sounds safer than mixing airborne luxury vehicles with Florida drivers who struggle with four-way stops.

The Mayor’s Master Plan: Sky Gridlock for Everyone!

Orlando’s top official is ecstatic about the idea, already envisioning a network of vertiports across the city and even Tampa. 

Yes, the dream is to expand flying car infrastructure to Tampa, because nothing screams “good idea” like launching airborne vehicles over a region that struggles with normal bridges.

According to insiders, the hope is that Orlando will become the Silicon Valley of flying car manufacturing, bringing in jobs, innovation, and undoubtedly, an increase in personal injury lawyers specializing in “airborne fender benders.”


Some Minor Issues to Consider

Of course, there are tiny hurdles to overcome before we all start commuting like billionaires in sci-fi movies.

  • The Cost – If you thought gas prices were bad, just wait until you see what it costs to insure an aircraft that doesn’t have a dedicated runway.
  • Licensing – To legally operate a flying car, you’d probably need a pilot’s license. Given Florida’s reputation for driver competency, this is... concerning.
  • The “Florida Man” Factor – Let's be real. The first person to launch a flying car off a ramp into a lake will do it here.

The Race to Take Flight

While Orlando is leading the charge, other cities are also scrambling to build vertiports. Who will be the first to turn their skies into an absolute nightmare? 

Only time will tell!

One thing’s for sure: Orlando traffic may soon be airborne, and our insurance premiums may never recover.

Please Help Find These Forgotten Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year!

  MY MOST IMPORTANT STORY  Dozens of Forgotten Little Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year! Welcome to the Sunshine State , where the palm trees sway, the alligators lurk, and the legislative process makes Kafka look like a life coach!  Florida House Bill HB21 . Not just a compensation bill but possibly a 20 million dollar "Stay out of Jail Free" card for some folks. This is a bill that does some good—but also trips over its own shoelaces, falls down a staircase, and lands on a historical oversight so big, it might as well have its own zip code! An oversight that overlooks what I consider to be its most vulnerable victims! The Setup: Justice with a Catch HB21 was enacted on July 1, 2024 to compensate victims of abuse from two male juvenile detention facilities located in Florida, Dozier and Okeechobee.  It says, “Hey, survivors of abuse between 1940 and 1975, here’s some compensation for the horrific things you endured!” Sounds good, right?

We Are Temporarily Halting Further Publication....

Do to financial issues and lack of funding we are temporarily halting further publication. After a full year of publication, we have reached a bridge that we are unable to cross at this time. We may periodically publish an article but at this time, full-time publication is no longer feasible. Thank you to all the readers who followed us throughout our journey and we wish you the very best. Hopefully we will see our way through this rough patch and will resume publication in the near future. Thanks again! Robert B.

Postal Police Stuck Behind ‘Keep Out’ Signs While Mailmen Face Muggers: You Can’t Make This Stuff Up!!

As crime against letter carriers surges, one would think that America’s armed, uniformed Postal Police might be hitting the streets to protect our mail.  Instead, they’re still glued to their post office entrances like sentries guarding Fort Frownmore.  Why?  Because since 2020, the Postmaster General decreed they must “protect postal property” only—meaning, they currently serve as glorified lobby bouncers rather than actual roaming guardians of the mailstream. “ They’re robbing letter carriers, they’re sticking a gun in a letter carrier’s face and they’re demanding arrow keys, ” laments Frank Albergo , president of the National Postal Police Union and a Postal Police Officer himself.  An "arrow key" in the context of the Post Office is a specialized, universal key that postal workers use to access various locked mail receptacles, including collection boxes, apartment mailboxes, and cluster boxes. Albergo isn’t exaggerating—research shows over 100 physical assaul...
