Thrust Duct on Sublime

I put on the thrust duct tonight. I had my brother in law help me set it on there with the stand. It stands a little tall while it's on the stand. It will drop down about 6" to the deck. Next week I should be putting it on, then I can put the bracing on for it. Like in the sketch two on the top and one on each side. Probably some smaller braces that come from the engine stand also to keep prop strikes from being a problem.

Hello,
I've been so psyched about getting Sublime finished I sketched up a drawing of her. I don't know if that's how I will paint it yet, but it gives you an idea.

Today was the big day. I finally was taking my hovercraft to the lake to take a test flight. Unfortunately, we had a late start. By the time, we got out to the lake it was about 1:45 and the wind had come making a full flight test out of the question. We decided to go ahead and launch just to see how well it hovered on the water.

Hi Folks
Well just to prove that I am still in the land of the living and haven't popped my clogs just yet, here's thelatest update on my project. It has been a very bad year as things go......having achieved soi much over the past 18 months and then come up against a virtual brick wall in 2009. This whole project was to have been completed by the Spring of 09, yet it still lingers on..

Hey everybody!
Ok, I owe an explanation. First of all, sorry I disappeared and haven’t posted. I have been deciding what to do….thinking about hovering and building and things in general.
