No, it's a pseudoscience book. It has as much to do with science as Star Trek. The guy's a crack-pot. According to you he has classified plans in a book, and you think they're legit.
One of the sure signs that an author is trying to foist a crackpot thesis onto the gullible general public is the use of a 'PhD' appended to his name on the book-cover. This author is no exception. The book is devoted to the non-science of 'electrogravitics'; the concept that electricity can negate gravity. This term is unknown to real physicists, and has only ever appeared once in Physics Abstracts (where it was used in a derogatory sense). Given that there is no bona fide scientific proof supporting the concept of antigravity, the author has fallen back on the usual rag-bag of pseudoscientific claims which pervade the 'disinformation super-highway' known as the internet. Indeed, gullible readers who haunt antigravity-related web-pages will find that they have paid to read again what they have probably already read online.
The author ticks all of the 'usual boxes': Tesla, T.T.Brown, John Searl, etc. The Searl chapter is particularly dismal, given that one has to be especially soft-headed to believe any his fantasies. The author even manages to identify the wrong person as being Searl in one of the photographs. He also mentions the so-called confirmatory experiments of Godin and Roschin, but fails to record that the experiments have been disowned by the head of the institute to which the inventors supposedly belong.
Such books as this would be harmless if they merely served to satisfy the need, of a certain class of consumer, to believe in 'suppressed science' and conspiracies. However, there are growing signs that the cancer of pseudoscience is invading the real world and wasting real resources. NASA, it will remembered, wasted millions of dollars on trying unsuccessfully to develop the so-called Podkletnov Effect. Real physicists had declared from the outset that this was certainly an artefact. They were ignored. One suspects that the NASA fiasco will not be the last, if scientifically ignorant decision-makers read superficially persuasive books such as the present one.

The fuel that apparently isn't there, DUH! Or unicorn farts. I forget which.

The guy who said he built the wings but there was no such thing and the other people who swear no anti grav???
Interesting idea - what evidence did you base it (TR-3B hypothesis) on?

I'm not saying a word about the construction. Last I heard that information was still classified.

How do you know that? What would the FBI, or anyone acting in an official capacity other than Google Analytics, care about who's reading what on ATS? I've yet to see any material dangerous to anyone, be it private individual or government agency, released on ATS.

Doubtful. The wingbox is the structure that holds the wing to the plane bounded by the spars.

In the Fire fighters manual, it shows the option for Engine Shutdown.
Unfortunately there is no option to Shutdown the Anti-gravity switch.
