Apparently the craft is so unstable that the designer was just too chicken to try flying it higher or in horizontal flight. I don't know what Neman Marcus (sp?) was selling. Marcus's top item is usually a publicity stunt priced so high that no sane person would buy it. However, if people will buy rocks in cute boxes, there must be someone with more money than brains who would but it.
