Plate 31: Front-end appearance <strong>of</strong> an electromagnetic vehicle as rendered from Plate 30.<br />

distant is located a bi-lateral projection, (3). This projection might be<br />

likened to wings on an airplane. Below the projection is positioned a<br />

lengthy bank <strong>of</strong> under-body emissions or flame jets, (4). In frontal<br />

view, these jets would extend radially outward from beneath the body<br />

at a probable angle <strong>of</strong> about 45 degrees. Immersed in, but extending<br />

out <strong>of</strong>, the flame bank is a tightly entwined tongue, (5). The length <strong>of</strong><br />

the tongue is at least 2 body diameters and has capability within itself<br />

to project emissions or plumes. Atop the body nose just aft <strong>of</strong> the axial<br />

exhaust flame, a bulbar pinched streamer, (6), flows upward and aft.<br />
