Hovercraft news, images, and videos, and details of how they save lives in rescue situations, and used in survey, patrol, commercial, leisure and rental applications. Hovercraft are very versatile, and travel over any flat surface, so they are useful for a wide range of uses. Hovercraft help save lives, time and money, and they can travel where other vehicles cannot reach. They are also available for leisure use, and are a lot of fun to drive – everyone should experience the thrill of flying from land to water to land, 180 turns and 360 spins on a bubble of air!
Development goes from strength to strength, there are now many manufacturers of leisure, commercial, rescue, military patrol, rental, survey and passenger carrying vessels. Hovercraft have a number of unique characteristics, with terms such as Hump and Ploughing. They are very weight sensitive vehicles, so designers need to consider performance and speed versus durability and safety. Hump describes the pressure wave created when hovercraft start when on-water – this pressure wave has to be overcome, so different models and engines have different on-water payload capabilities.
