Ugly roaring beetle hovercraft tests a transport revolution
In Rhyl Wales the VA3 hovercraft carried four rows of passengers to Wallasey over sand and sea. Test pilot Colquhoun led the craft at up to 50 mph with 10 tons on a cushion of air. The trial runs cost $5.60 a head and end soon, with hopes of a future channel service and larger models from Vickers Armstrong and British United Airways.
