Re: Flying Boat.

There are several of these craft flying around here on the weekend. It is basically an ultralight aircraft with an inflatable on the bottom. They are pretty slow flying, looks like a fun ride!

I sure hope nobody turned the key with the guy behind it in that last photo!

I want a twin seater ultralight with twin kayaks for pontoons. First I just need six numbers. The only drawback is that they have to be the RIGHT numbers in order to actually win the lottery. They're fussy that way.

Re: Flying Boat.

I lusted for a Republic SeaBee for years. There were a couple based at the rural airport where I worked when in HS. Had fantasies about flying all over the world and fishing from the bow.

Yup yup -- gotta love those boats that fly-- I've heard it said that my home provice of Ontario has so many lakes a quarter million of them aren't even named yet.

Gimme a Lake Amphibian and a pad of paper and I'll be on my way. 8)

Re: Flying Boat.

The Russians built a huge four jet engine aircraft that flew only as a ground effect aircraft. What was real novel about it was the four large missle launching tubes on the top of the fuselage. I tried to find a picture of it with out success.
