  • A real flying boat! Watch it start up its Rotax engine, taxi in the sea and convert to a flying aircraft, as the pilot sets full power and pushes the bar against him, taking off from the blue sea of Limassol port, Cyprus. Enjoy some close and low flybys-low passes with the passenger waving and watch the ultralight convert to a boat again, as it comes in for a perfect landing, smoothly kissing the water!

    Haha I saw one of these cruising Deerfield Beach, FL about 15 years ago. It was just cruising down the beach at about 100 feet of altitude. Glad I finally remembered to do this search, cause for the longest time I thought I went nuts. Lmao, what an amazing ultralight craft.

    Something like this could revolutionize the daily transport of persons from small places to small places in areas all around the world. Ranging from the Amazon, to the Arctic.
    As the boat belly could allow for the craft to be used like a sled on snow top as well, even without takeoff.
