THE ABOVE IS THE REAL McCOY!!

The original post is just using magnets ... but the REAL flying device is that talked about in the above link.

One can build their own small toy like device utilizing the above "discoveries" ... and it will actually "fly". The problem is that they are HUGE energy sucking devices (at least at the "toy" level) which has hindered their use for any practical PUBLIC application.

I am sure that there has been massive amounts of government secret research done with Brown's discoveries which make the process much more efficient and practical, but that work has NOT been publicly disclosed (that I know of).

Rumors abound that Brown's work has actually been applied to some "flying" devices, though those rumors also say that it can only provide part of the lift necessary and standard aerodynamics are still necessary to provide a majority of the lift. With room temperature super conductors though ... the physics of that dynamic may have changed dramatically.

Neat stuff
