It's amazing what horsepower can achieve. Look no further than the truly remarkable Sukhoi Su-29.

Well for just US$199 plus shipping you too could own (http://cgi.ebay.com/R-C-Hydrofoam-3in1-Flying-Boat-Hydro-foam-NEW_W0QQitemZ6058695715QQcategoryZ2564QQrdZ1QQcmdZ ViewItem#ebayphotohosting) (and crash) one.

MEAN!!! Hey buggy, get one, i'm saving already! Can head down to quarry lake next to pupuke and fly them there. I'm sure a lot of people will be WTF when they see them jump off the water etc.

You don't actually need a lake at all. Though it would be a neat trick, down at the local 'model-sailing' lake, putting around with your boat, a small crowd around watching, children pointing and watching. Then all of a sudden pull it into a vert climb and pretend to freak out, like 'wtf?', 'oh shit, this ain't supposed to happen', kind of shit. Watch the locals freak out.

Dear Santa,
I've been a very good boy.
Please can I have one of those flyingboatamathingies.
I promise to brush my teeth and stop wetting the bed.
Thank you

Keewwlll!!!!!!! Now who's gonna build the full size one for a human pilot? Imagine the Hydraplane races on Karapiro in summit like that? Gives a whole new meaning to the term, "Flying boat"!!:laugh:

One of the guys here at work was going to get one 6 months ago but he reckons it sounded very dodgy as the importer is in Australia but the money has to go into a Chinese bank account blah blah.

That'll be the Chinese knock-offs. Plenty on ebay going considerably cheaper then the real deal.
