New photo Public to be asked whether ‘flying taxis’ should be allowed to carry passengers to tackle congestion

THE public could be canvassed on whether they believe “flying taxis” should be allowed to carry passengers.

Advisers at the Department of Transport have called on ministers to “explore the current level of public acceptance around ‘flying taxis’”

Transport chiefs may ask the British public whether flying taxis, such as this Vertical Aerospace design, should be allowed to transport passengers

In a report called Position Statement on Future of Flight from the DfT’s science and advisory council it stated that “globally congestion is an increasing problem.”

It continued: “If personal air travel is to become a reality, we have to keep pace with demand and new patterns of travel.”

It noted that flying taxis would likely “attract the upper end of the market” and “be fully autonomous” which would not help how the public would receive them.

The DfT said: “One of the themes to our aviation strategy is enabling new technology and innovation and we continue to explore the role of government in preparing for these trends.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
