Like the Steam Train, the Glider, the jet engine, the Comet, Concorde and Harrier, this is a true icon of British technological history, one of those eccentric but brilliant inventions we should be proud of and look after appropriately. In an age where other nations now get the enthusiasm and funding from their governments to develop and test new weird and wonderful transportation machines which may one day see regular use by the masses, this iconic British invention, engineering masterpiece and important part of our recent history, should be preserved for future generations so we can show them how truly 'Great', forward-thinking and technologically-advanced Britain once was.
Please help save just one of the largest - the British Hovercraft Corporation (Saunders-Roe) SR.N4 'Princess Anne'. You'll also be preserving all the hard work and dedication that hundreds of designers, engineers and crew gave so that thousands could enjoy this once taken-for-granted ultra-quick method of marine-aviation transport linking the UK to the continent.
