Parts of Proposal: Contact the Expert

This is my letter to a expert:

Dear Professional,

I am from Bogotá, Colombia and I am in 8th grade and I am doing a project about Hover Cars.
In Internet I started searching for lots of time and found out that you were building a Hover Car prototype and wanted to contact you.

Here are a few questions for you:
-What size are you building your prototype?
-How will your car levitate?
-And why are you doing this?

Thank you so much,
Pablo Ancizar

Parts of Proposal: Facts

In our invention we researched about fans and big fans. We found out that fans can have 3 or 4 blades depending on the type of fan. Ceasing fans have 5-7 blades because it's a different type of fan. A jet turbine mat have even 60 blades because its also another kind of fan. Our Hover Car will have a fan that has 4 blades.

Parts of Proposal: Invention Description

Our invention will be a flying car, in other words a Hover Car. In our invention the Hover Car will fly ith a fan and the fan will be versatile so it moves forward. The fan will be big and will be at the bottom of the car. The fan will have a gasoline motor to make it turn. A maximum of 4 people will fit in the car and will have a normal car appearance.

Because the car will look like a normal car we will need a light chassis.  We can buy this from any good car brand. The car has to me light so the fan doesn't have to use so much power to make the car float. The inside of the car will also be similar to a normal car but instead of a steering wheel there will be a joystick like in a helicopter. Using the joystick makes the car go forward, back, right, and/or left.
