Old nautical saying, translating from Spanish: Small craft, big misery.

 It's been said that the two happiest days in a boat owner's life
are the day he buys it and the day he sells it.

 Same with airplanes.
 

 Damn it Lars! So that one is out too? ;)
 Revision... I buy a plane _and_ a pilot then. You guys are really party poopers! ;)

   Well, how about a mini zeppelin or blimp ? Big hot
 air balloon with a tiny house under ?   :-)
 

 It's already on my list of companies to start. A luxury zeppelin liner between europe and the US. I just need to find a billionaire to fund it first. =)

 Zeps are technically "better", but the framework
 is subject to stress and can snap - even if it
 was upgraded to titanium. Blimps spread the load
 across the entire envelope and can thus survive
 sudden wind gusts better. They may kinda fold
 and shimmy, but don't snap.

 Hmmmm ... maybe a 'hybrid' is possible now -
 a blimp, but 'stiffened' a bit with like
 graphite ribs so it's not SO floppy ?

I heard about an experimental concept that does not use a gas for lift, but vacuum! Very fascinating!
