GRAVITY POWERED AIRCRAFT-flies without fuel

                        GRAVITY POWERED AIRCRAFT


This concept of sustained flight without the use of fuel was introduced on JAN 21,2004. A nuclear designer, ROBERT D. HUNT has come up with this new technology. Gravity powered aircraft is a hybrid aircraft with a fixed wing, ridged skin airplane made of light weight and modern composite materials.



How does it fly: This gravity plane uses the technology of gliding and aerostatic lift. It uses gravity's dual properties-buoyancy which creates an upward motion in order to gain altitude, and gravity acceleration which creates a forward motion and downward gliding motion, a technology that could make for a much cleaner and healthier environment. buoyancy is created by the gas bags filled with helium within the two large rigid pontoon shaped lifting bodies(lighter than air lift-aerostatic).
