: Paul Tomblin writes: I lived in Quebec and for years I'd heard of a "hydroplane dock" near where I lived. And then one time I was canoeing on the river and realized that people, even Anglos, were saying "hydroplane" when they meant "float plane". Hydroplane is a synonym. No it isn't,. it's wrong, fjukktard. Bertie |

: writes: A hydroplane is a boat so called because when at speed it "planes" over the surface of the water. The word is also a synonym for a seaplane, and that was probably the definition intended in the law. No, it isn't, fjukktard. It's a completely different type of contraption. You are a no nothing idiot. Bertie |

Well, I don't think there is much question about the intent, since the regulation in question is under the "CHAPTER 5 AIRCRAFT AND AIRPORTS" section. It's obvious that they weren't referring to the boat type of hydroplane. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) -- Message posted via AviationKB.com http://www.aviationkb.com/Uwe/Forums...ation/200704/1 |
