That is ONE distinctive hover Al.
ALWAYS a special time - the first hover.
"Bumble B" perhaps! ;)


Well done and hope the thrust goes well also.






There "appears to be" rain on your craft.
I assumed it was only Yorkshire at the moment as there appears to be enough here.  ::)

We only had a couple of light showers which makes a change  :o


I'm waiting on a delivery of 4 stainless bolts to bolt the thrust frame to the floor,  They are late now so hopefully they will be here tomorrow so I can get the thrust engine in the craft and give me a bit more room in my shed.


Biggest jobs left to do is the wiring and the fuel pipes to the 43 ltr tank.  I have estimated that mid July it will be having first test flights on the water, but if all goes well could be by the end of this month  :)  I can then start on my next hover project ???
