Flymo

Just now I recalled this lawn mower from decades ago, this intriguing machine that literally floated on air.

They disappeared from advertising, and figured the company or manufacturer had long since ceased making them or had closed.

Wrong.

I thought of Flymo today, some 30 years since last seeing one mentioned, and did a search. Wouldn't you know, but there is an active Flymo presence overseas, but not in the US or Canada.

I'm intrigued. I'd like one. They have a rider, but sadly... that one does not float. Bummer, I'd be sold.

Since this is the beginning of mowing season, here is to the ingenuity of Flymo, and the hope someone decides to sell them here.
