I'd give them 120 extra points just for trying it.

Thanks, Rich. :D

The first time I saw it I thought it was a real lawnmower. 8-)

If lift + thrust is greater than load + drag it will fly.

From the film "Apollo 13"

Blanche Lovell: Well don't you worry, honey. If they could get a washing machine to fly, my Jimmy could land it.

You know, this used to be a helluva good country. I don't understand what's gone wrong with it. - George Hanson, 1969
