Congrats on the launch and kudos on building on bold ideas.

I think car rides are "good enough" for a certain distance vs short flights. Short flights (tiny aircrafts) are so expensive because they have to compete with the good enough option and I am not sure that can ever happen.

The more important point is that flight accidents can affect people or buildings that are far away from roads - practically anywhere within a certain range of a flight path. This will have huge effect in people's mindset about safety and work against the popularity of such flights.
