Pegasus (Hovercraft)

Pegasus (Hovercraft)

The Pegasus is a hovercraft vehicle made for educational purposes. The plans could have been purchased from an article in the January 1984 issue of Popular Mechanics.

In the construction process, large lawn mower engine could be added to lift a heavier payload. People would also often duct a chain saw engine to the back of the craft to give it a larger amount of thrust. Robert Q. Riley created the plans that can be ordered off his website.
