BBC story on experimental hybrid air frame that is uses features of airship, airplane, hovercraft, and vacuum. It's been around for a few years now, and is starting to get more attention. There are currently competing designs based on the same priciples from Brit and US contenders. My daughter affectionately refers to it as The Flying Butt Cheek. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-12110386 [video=youtube;v2Xs0mvJLK0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2Xs0mvJLK0"[/video]
