Everyman's flying saucer

Note the cunning design; also note how the airflow over the saucer is
going to generate lift as it's deflected down by the top hatches in the
final illustration: http://tinyurl.com/6po26w
This is a fascinating concept, as the air isn't going to move like that
at all in real life, and even if it did, the lift generated would
probably be measured in ounces.
This is what happens when new aircraft are designed by officers in the
merchant marine. :-D
