Hola Folks!
Does anyone have any leads on this story? If there is any truth to it,
I wonder if the coil was a mobius/bifilar or what? I posted it on
Keelynet.com but no one knew more.
It reminded me of the guy years ago who called me from Atlanta. He had
read the Wachspress monopole flyer patent and claimed he made a 3 foot
spherical version which he flew around the room.
He said the coils that drove it would get so hot, the insulation would
start to smoke after about 15-20 minutes of 'flight'. The guy sounded
very paranoid on the phone.
He called me two times over a 3 month or so period, and asked if there
was some small, lightweight power source that could be carried inside a
6 foot model he was building that he planned to ride in.
His 3 foot model was powered by an umbilical cord leading to a high
current DC power supply driven by line power, but he didn't say if it
was 110vac or 220vac which might have been 3 phase.
Since the thing needed a large current, it reminded me when we did our
Tesla lightning show in Dallas, the 2.3 million volt coil used 220vac 3
phase to provide sufficient power to the 'ark of the covenant' that fed
the coil to produce 12-15 foot electrical bolts.
The guy from Atlanta said despite what we are told, the earths magnetic
field is sufficiently powerful that a very strong magnetic field would
actually provide lift which is what the following article indicates.
Certainly leads to interesting products like the hoverboard in 'Back to
the Future' that used superconducting magnets to provide lift.

I was watching an interesting documentry on real life UFO's the other
day and one thing that caught my attention that I hadn't seen before was
one of the potential methods of causing a craft to hover.
A man on the show demonstrated that if you coiled bare lead wiring in a
certain way and ran a high current and voltage through it (as opposed to
just a high voltage) it would actually hover, although it would glow red
hot.
The surface he did this on was non-conductive and he said there was
currently no scientific explanation for this effect. He then went on to
suggest that the US military have experimented using this effect as a
form of propellant and gave an example of an incident in Florida where
loads of people caught supposed UFO's on tape and they featured a
glowing ring on the underside, much like the coil.
