A nice photo of this craft can be found at

It made it a bit more obvious why the body is so deep.
I winder if the duct made anything better.......

The fact there were no followups or imitators speaks volumes.

Here's a couple more shots of it from different angles, which I took
at Toowoomba a few years ago. Apparently they flew it once, briefly,
but it was so unstable nobody wanted to try again.

Some believe that the world converting to the metric system would greatly simplify our measures. But look what would really happen to our old cliches:

A miss is as good as 1.6 kilometers.
Put your best 0.3 of a meter forward.
Spare the 5.03 meters and spoil the child.
Twenty-eight grams of prevention is worth 453 grams of cure.
Give a man 2.5 centimeters and he'll take 1.6 kilometers.
Peter Piper picked 8.8 liters of pickled peppers.
