Seven World Records Flight Gets Media Attention!


Hub pages journalist Yvonne Ashmore captures the spirit of The Ikeler4000 Round The World Record Setting Flight in her article on HubPages at www.hubpages.com/hub/ikeler4000flyingcar Yvonne uses the pen name "newsworthy" and looks for topics that truly are fit to be in the news! We Thank Yvonne for accurately depicting the progress of the Ikeler4000 team in working towards completing it's goal and setting Seven new world records for the pages of aviation history. We appreciate her ongoing interest in seeing the mission succeed by also welcoming her to promote our Ad Space sales on the vehicle and website. These advertisers and sponsors are the financial force that will bring this project to completion and open a new industry for personal travel by people around the world.

Early plans are also being made to lobby congress to add takeoff and landing lanes beside the highway roads on the edge of every city and town in America. The United States already has over 5400 airstrips and airways, and this existing infrastructure will make early adaptation for use of the Ikeler4000 a breeze. Other technologies like NASA's "Highway In The Sky" navigation system and Global Positioning are amazing technologies that are hardly used by current users of aviation and are as powerful as the internet for bringing worldwide travel to the average person. There are exciting days ahead and we Thank everyone supporting us on this mission!

A Time To Remember

Walter Cronkite passed away yesterday and it reminded me of his era of news reporting. In his day, the news media looked for important news. He admitted there was some sensationalism even then, but the news was meant to deliver intelligent topics to the people. Topics and stories from around the world that supported our democracy and our American leadership upon our planet. He acknowledged the current trend is more about people's bank accounts and celebrity suffering. Stuff of the tabloids forty years ago, but mainstream media today.
Cronkite's message left me with a feeling of thanks. An attitude of gratitude that I too had lived through the greatest years of the twentieth century. The Kennedy years and man landing on the moon. Those were years of great social and technological triumph. Times when the thought of flying cars and robot servants seemed reasonably close. Years the likes of which we will probably never see again. So I appreciate that I lived through those years and heard from men like Walter Cronkite. Men of the highest standards, whose goals were those of societal progression and not just personal gain. Men whose achievements will stand out forever in our recorded history. Men who we should aspire to be like again.
Today I want to thank our sponsors and advertisers, as their revenues are what is driving the Ikeler4000 forward to it's completion and it's Round The World Record Setting Flight. Those will be days worth living in and they are coming soon!
