Bonjour

Sorry but that is almost the full extent of my French.I am hoping that all my European friends are more educated than me, and can understand English.

My intention is to build the Tornado using a Villiers 3T 325cc two stroke twin engine. This engine is my choice because I have had it in my shed for about 10 years. It is brand new and has never been run yet. My concern is that it may not be powerfull enough for the craft. The rated horsepower is 18hp. I am considering running a multiblade fan directly from the crankshaft.

I would apreciate any advise which anyone can give

Merci bien

Hello

Could you send me some explanations about a few holes in hovercraft body??

I can not understand what about this holes and what is a reason to do this holes.

a new picture from my hovercraft with his duct.

and one more question :

whether the tunnel has to be the central route and whether it can fill in the foam for better buoyancy

Regards , Janek

hello Jan,

For D11: both holes it's for add "trappe de visite" = hatch : właz
These are two hatchs for access to screw assembly of wings.

For D25:
french word "patins" is protecting skids : ochrony płozy
it's one of solution for make a protection for the underside of the machine

And, YES you can filling the central chanel with some buoyancy.

Thank you for your new picture.

All good for you for next step.
