Abstract

1. Navigational equipment. The radio navigational equipment likely to be carried in a hovercraft will depend on the type of craft, the route or area of operation, and the economics of operation.

At present the operational requirements for navigational equipment are not fully crystallized because no hovercraft is yet in commercial operation and the operational requirements may well differ from trial requirements. However, two distinct types of hovercraft could become operational soon, the immersed sidewall hovercraft and the amphibious air curtain hovercraft.
