chopper lowers a rescue basket, hop in, get to the destination after they hoist you up. Then you pay a hefty fee but who cares, it was a kickass ride. Beats a limo.

Just made this idea because i hate traffic.

       Fly like a black hawk, perhaps?   

       Sorry, lame joke.

       Trump's got one of these dud'n he?   

       Kinda hard to stick a leg... er... thumb out to hail one, though, and cell phone use in the cockpit is very tricky to do legally. So, everybody carries a transponder with them? But really - THAT'S how i want to pick up my prom date!

       I'd totally pay for it. Of course I'd have to save for a few months.   

       I can imagine using this right after coming out a football/baseball stadium. Thousands of people would be talking about me for days! Well at least until the novelty wore off.

       Sounds like something that happens in the movies - you dial for the helicopter to pick you up anytime, anyplace...

       /I'd totally pay for it/   

       Indeed. This is what we call a "transaction".   

       /Thousands of people would be talking about me for days/   

       They would just assume that you had had a heart attack. Although I guess a big smile and double thumbs up on your part might allay their concerns.
