Back in the 1980s the Design & Technology department and A level students at Rainham Mark Grammar School built a hovercraft. This was used to give rides across the school field on open days and fairs as well as general messing about some lunchtimes if there was enough fuel available! This photo was taken at a school fair in around June 1987 and shows David Spender driving it across the field, interesting to note that only the passenger has a crash helmet!

These photos were taken on other occasions and show Clive Seager driving the RMGS hovercraft.
