Since it is a wind-powered blower-floater, it is capable of low-speed flight. Rhodes and his plane lifted off and slowly circled in front of the spectators' seats at about the speed of a fast walk before landing at their original location.

"Number 1 has a circular wing, but it is rather small. I guess it's more for speed. Also, the gondola where the cockpit is located is a little lower, which seems to emphasize stability."

He is the granddaughter of Marikka. ...... This is also a circular wing, but it is thinner than it looks. It is thin, probably for speed.

The air resistance during flight seems to be low because of this.
"Probably, the air jets used to keep the aircraft afloat are very powerful."
