I wouldn't be surprised if direct delivery by air had been proposed in at least a few such ideas. In any case, it looks like the future (or at least that aspect of the future) could be here soon enough.
I do seem to recall seeing one of those 50's predictions of the future where a smiling (male, uniformed) helicopter pilot delivered a package to a (well-dressed) housewife.
