I'm thinking of a thin "plastic film" usually used to wrap around food to
keep it fresh and air tight (I don't know how's it called in english).

I was thinking of more a complete LEGO solution--the only thing non-LEGO in
my plans is the skirt, which probably will be a bicycle innertube.
What I plan first is to get hte motor, the fan and turn it on and see if I
can dry my hair with it ;)
Secondly, set up a platform, possibly 4 32 x 32 baseplates, with 6x8 plates
joining them together at the edges, hopefully leaving a 6x6 hole right in
the middle where I'll mount the prop and motor and see if it can get enuf
air blown under the plates to at least move across a vinyl floor if pushed.
At least that's as far as I got in my head right now.
Maybe the castle arches have the same diameter as the Znap fan--we shall see.
