Subject: Who really invented the canard roadable.

I just realized Herb Adams (father of the Pontiac Trans Am Firebird)
came up with the idea of a canard roadable airplane using a ducted fan.
It must have been in the back of my subconscious mind.
I owe Herb an apology. I did change the automotive mode drive
line from the ducted fan to a VW tx and belt drive to the prop
for efficiency reasons.

I updated and uploaded the roadable text and  3D's to the
ACRE NL web site.

I included Perry Micks comments on when to tow the wings and when
not.
