Trump signs new executive orders intended to make flying cars a reality, slash flight times

A aviation company is turning heads with an electric vertical take-off and landing vehicle. President Donald Trump signed three new executive orders on Friday aimed at accelerating American drone innovation and supersonic air travel, while also restoring security to American airspace. The three orders will be critical to American safety and security, White House officials involved in the drafting of the orders indicated, particularly in light of major worldwide events coming to the United States in the next few years, such as the World Cup and the Olympics. In addition to bolstering safety and security, the new orders will also spur greater innovation in the aerospace and drone sectors, something White House officials said has been stifled in recent years as a result of burdensome regulations. "Flying cars are not just for the Jetsons," Michael Kratsios, a lead tech policy adviser at the White House said.
