Did anyone check out the Aerocat kitplane at Oshkosh? It's a 4-place
amphibious twin with detachable floats.

I would love to see some pictures or hear your thoughts on what seems
to be a remarkable design. I am not associated with them, but I am
considering building an aircraft in the future and this may be an
ideal choice for me.



I have one up under my OshKosh 2003 photos at

I think i labelled it 'ugly amphib' heh


Nice pictures, but I think the one you have labeled as an S-3 is
actually an S-2. The S-3 is a twin turbofan.



Nope, I've got lots of S-2 time, and it isn't one of those either. It
looks like an OV-1 Mohawk.

The pictures labelled FJ-4 are actually either an F4U or an FG (the FG was
a license built F4U). The FJ-4 is a derivative of the F-86. Very
different.

Also check the spelling of Sikorsky. And it is an amphibian flying boat,
not a float plane.

The "bombers" are North American B-25s (the twin tail ones) and Douglas
A-26s (the designation was later changed to B-26, after all the original
Martin B-26s had been retired).

Nice pictures though.
