Hi,
If it's the same "flight" model as the other H/craft available it
is a hoot to fly/ drive/ sail.
Try taking it off the edge of a cliff onto water - it almost always lands happily and sails on

Is that the same type that still does the run from Lymington to the Isle of Wight? If so, could it be adapted for AI use? :think:
Oh, and speaking of AI hovercraft, whatever happened to ........

Hi Andy
Doesn't matter if it is the one now or not :shock: ......this is a classic site

:tuttut: :huf:
It's good as it's the one that did it a while ago
So that'll be a go for it then :dance:
Jut needs some period Sealink or who ever it was that did it in the beginning

Um, I
think I followed that answer Garry. :think:
Anyway, the conclusions I reached are:
- This is an SRN-6
- An SRN-6 is NOT what Hovertravel use now
- An SRN-6 is what Hovertravel used in the 60s-70s
- I guess I'd better try an find enough info to do a decent Hovertravel period repaint.

I am aware this is a classic site. Surely that would not preclude the painting of a period aircraft in modern livery, if appropriate?
