I see the submitter omitted the end of the original title: "...That Needs to Make a Comeback in 2020". I guess they agree with my sentiment that no, it does not. Even if you ignore the most obvious environmental aspects (the fuel consumption and noise pollution), there is still one other I can think of: even if somebody invented a noiseless anti-gravity drive and the "Mr. Fusion" required to power it, it still wouldn't be a good idea for everyone to be able to simply fly and land anywhere they want...

This, on the other hand, is regrettable from a curiosity perspective...

- cpncrunch 6y agoNo, I did actually submit the full title, but it was truncated to "that needs to make a comeback" (I just omitted "in 2020" as it wouldn't fit). I see one of the admins has changed the title to remove the "needs to make a comeback" bit entirely.
