Czech Mermaid Amphib
I was on track to examine the initial models of this aircraft Monday,
but my plans have been changed by a family emergency. Any comments from people who've laid hands on these birds at Oshkosh, Sebring or Sun-n-Fun? I've just devoted Spring and Summer to flying an Aventura 1-seater, having a blast and logging over 450 water landings. Sex pales compared to the thrill of putting ear buds under 32dB ear defenders, skipping like a motorized rock along shorelines, in and out of coves, past jet skis and boats. Life is incomplete until you've thrown down the gear underwater, waddled up a ramp and taken a leg-stretch/pee/photo-op break. The whole community got involved in this delightful undertaking. My humble resume includes all manner of lightplanes, some chopper orientation, going past Mach 1 as PIC, flying every Boeing 700-series but the 737 and the 747; yet, none of these compares to water flying. Please, share your gut reaction to this new design, if you've had a chance to see it up close! |
