But in the postcard that Dustycajun posted at the top of this page there are a group of what look to be taxis... But zooming in you can see that one of them is a Taylor Aerocar! .. Between 1949 and the late 50's around a half dozen of these type i and ii flying cars were made at Longview Washington... Where one was bought by a Portland Oregon radio station to use for flying traffic reports for which they used the tagline, "It knows the traffic.. "cause its been there"!
