G'day All,
Iv'e always been fascinated with the Seawind Amphibian. Sleek hull and unusual engine mounting configuration.
Would this particular design lend itself to reproduction in a two place configuration?. Are there any problems that stand out with this particular layout from a design and construction angle that I can't see that may be obvious to others.
Going by other discussions relating to wing and tail placement I notice the wing is fairly close to the horizontal stabilizer (by comparison to other designs.....Osprey...Mermaid etc) which could possibly cause some pitching instability.
May be some food for thought.
Cheers
