...which required the rotation of large panels about its central axis thus leading to the misperception that the panels were actually a fan that held the vehicle aloft due to the air pushed through them.  Instead, the rotation of these electrically charged and modulated panels was integral to the anti-gravitational effect and the amount of air pushed through the system was kept a low as possible in order not to generate and vehicle created dust clouds....

Cool! Works for me!
