Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone might know of a resource, or have a set of aluminum float/hull plans? I would like to design an amphibious ultralight/LSA for myself over the course of the next year. I am an engineer & work for a metal fabrication company, so the idea is to design it in CAD & then have my company laser & form most everything out of aluminum. However, I am not familiar with hull design, internal support structure, & the appropriate angles & lofting that would help the aircraft plane (non pun intended) and get out of water more quickly. I was hoping I could obtain a set of plans & use that as a reference & initital means of educating myself. Likewise, if anyone knows of any good books/resources pertaining to hull/float design, those references would certainly be welcome. Thanks!!
