From BAT. No idea what the schraeder valve does but maybe the owner was trying to pressurize the fuel system. 🤪

Fuel pump running a bit slow these days?
Gotta do something.
Park it in the sun and shine mirrors on the gas tank.
Or relocate it in the back seat and have Mongo sit on it.

Hybrid ESTOLAS aircraft combines aspects of a plane, helicopter, hovercraft and airship
Forum Base Militar Web Magazine • Exibir tópico - Zeppelin o Retorno.

Quote:
The ESTOLAS features a disc-shaped main body that can be filled with helium to provide additional lift The ESTOLAS features a rotor in its body that provides additional lift A hovercraft-like skirt allows the ESTOLAS to takeoff and land on a variety of natural surfaces The ESTOLAS could be used to deliver aid to disaster areas
The hybrid ESTOLAS aircraft features a short, squat design with propeller engines mounted at the rear of a disc-shaped main body that houses a rotor like a helicopter's. The aircraft is composed almost entirely of lightweight composite materials and the body and can also be filled with helium to further reduce the aircraft's weight and provide additional lifting power. This would allow it to take off and land at lower speeds on short runways and, if no conventional runways are available, it can use its air-cushioned skirt and wheel-skis to take off and land on any natural surface, such as fields, marshes, water or snow.

The project team is examining four different ESTOLAS sizes, including small, medium, heavy and superheavy with maximum payloads ranging from under 3 tonnes (3.3 tons) to over 400 tonnes (440 tons). Project Coordinator Alexander Gamaleyev of Riga Technical University in Latvia says the superheavy ESTOLAS model would be able to take off and land at distances of 175 m (574 ft), while the small version could do so within just 75 m (246 ft).
