Improved Hovercraft

This improvement of an aerofoil compensates for side winds.

Large trucks produce excessive greenhouse gasses due to inefficient reciprocating engines and complicated gearboxes. This hovercraft would be much better because it eliminates friction with the road surface due to flexing tyres and suspension. It can also run on alcohol, a non fossil fuel, which can be produced from corn.
