So to be more specific, I am thinking of making a small hovercraft which can support the weight of one person (i.e. 140 pounds). I know I will need a fan to produce the thrust but in order to know how powerfull the fan needs to, I will need to know how much thrust is required to lift 140...

Hello, Simple question. Is there an equation or set of equations which allow me to calculate how much force/thrust is needed to lift a certain amount of mass or weight? Daniel
