Old sci-fi magazines once promised a Jetsons-style Hovercraft for everyone - but a redneck would prefer a "loungechair hovercraft." The boys test out designs for a hovercraft. They settle on a design that hovers with a lawn-mower engine - and a rocket attached to the back. They strap Travis into their homemade design... and fire him off.
