"He started the engines and threw the helicopter screws into gear. the machine shot vertically into the air. Henry accelerated; the humming of the propeller shrilled from hornet to wasp, from wasp to mosquito; the speedometer showed that they were rising at the best part of two kilometres a minute." (Huxley 61).
Technological Advancement help transportation greatly, as we flood the ground with cars today, Brave New World uses the free airspace above us. Technology can help us manage the traffic in a whole new dimension. No longer will we have to wait on crowded freeways for hours on end while we move at 10 mph, we could now fly at incredible speeds to wherever we would like to go without the hassle of crowded roads. By simply using technology to manage complicated things like airspace, we can make our lives much easier. This would also allow us to save time, money, and possibly the environment if we found ways to make the helicopters more 'green'.
