May I ask why? Sounds like you are tight on budget and both those aircraft are ideal for scroungers.besides the vj-22... and kingfisher
Bingo.Dear sockmonkey,
You rsecond sketch reminds us of Payen and Sea Era.
During the 1930s and 1940s, a frenchman named Payen proposed a whole series of tandem-winged airplanes with conventional main wings, but delta rear wings. Only one or two of Payen's proposals flew.
Sea Era was a one-off experimental seaplane built by a guy in Washington State. He also proposed various combinations of conventional and delta wings. I saw the low-winged Sea Era prototype at the Arlington Fly-In one year (circa 2000). He also proposed a high winged version with a delta lower wing/sponson.
Now I understand you suggestion for a lifting rear wing to balance the weight of the pusher engine.
I like that. Put a reversing propeller on the back, and amaze bystanders when docking / departing.
