Last week the site went back online, and this week the May News Note has been finalised and published for our members. It is available under the Members News menu item which can be seen by those who are logged in.
For visitors I offer here a view of some of what is happening in the Air Cushion Technology world. If you like what you see I encourage you to apply for membership which will give you full access to the site and a growing volume of technical resources, including the regular News Note.

Since my dear friend Brian Russell died, we have hit a pause in communication in The Hovercraft Society. The world continues though, and that does include ACV and SES technology and operations. I have recently made a visit to two SES specialists in Southern Norway who have closer connections to IoW than I expected (see below). I am preparing material for the Royal Institution of Naval Architects that will take a while. Meanwhile it strikes me that it might be good to share some thoughts with you and so try to regain a bit of contact.
