Vacuum Sucks

Sorry, couldn't help it...

I doubt if you could make a vacuum container light enough to lift itself..

Now, my idea is fat wings filled hydrogen at low pressure that would be used for both lift and power. Do it right and you could land heavier than takeoff weight.

Did I tell you about my secret supply of Flubber?
