Just clocked new this new release over at All nodes. Its a real hoot and well worth a look in. The exterior and interior VC is very good but probably won't keep me from taking to the skies for very long. :smile:

Hi,

If it's the same "flight" model as the other H/craft available it is a hoot to fly/ drive/ sail. :smile:

Try taking it off the edge of a cliff onto water - it almost always lands happily and sails on :lol:

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 ........ :wink:

Hi Andy

Doesn't matter if it is the one now or not :shock: ......this is a classic site :poke: :tuttut: :huf:

It's good as it's the one that did it a while ago :smile:

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

:lol: :lol: :lol:

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?
