      It's always been a common feature of flying boats -- there just aren't that many of those around anymore. But for flying boats, it's a good feature, since it keeps the props and engines well up out of the way of the water spray in water landings and take offs, which is desirable.

      @@foxxray54 Sorry to write that but Dornier isnt really in existence anymore. The Seastar and the S-ray are the last Aircraft by the Design basics of Claude Dornier. Only 3 Prototypes of the Seastar and 2 of the S-ray. have been Build. Its a very very rare catch. There are more Mustangs Spitfires and Bf 109s out there currently flying.

      That's a Dornier specialty. They built float planes with that configuration since the 1920s. The gigantic Do-X had 12 engines arranged in 6 push-pull nacelles (it was the biggest plane in the world at that time). The Do 18 had the same configuration as the one in the video but with diesel engines. The Do 26 had 4 engines in 2 push-pull nacelles. The Do 335, which was not a float plane, had a push-pull configuration which allowed it to become the fastest piston engine of WWII.
