Control Surfaces
or
the flaps there at the end of the craft
This script is provide free for education purposes with the assumption that the reader is fully aware 
of the risks involved. The author assumes no responsibility or liability for its use or consequences of
                                                   its use by others. 

So what are control surfaces - generally all  flaps, ailerons, elevators, rudders, thrust reversers, stabilizers and reverse thrust buckets are control surfaces. Control surfaces allow the pilot of a  Hovercraft to fly the craft in a  more controlled manner.
If you need more basic info take a closer look at the following page  Control surfaces in general as seen in the aviation industry. Over time we will add the pages to each set of control surfaces.
Please be patient - thank you.
