  • A real flying boat! Watch it start up its Rotax engine, taxi in the sea and convert to a flying aircraft, as the pilot sets full power and pushes the bar against him, taking off from the blue sea of Limassol port, Cyprus. Enjoy some close and low flybys-low passes with the passenger waving and watch the ultralight convert to a boat again, as it comes in for a perfect landing, smoothly kissing the water!

    As the boat belly could allow for the craft to be used like a sled on snow top as well, even without takeoff.

      If it meets the qualifications for a part 103 ultralight vehicle, then they would not need any sort of licensing. If you look up paramotoring, that would be an example and they can reach up to 15k feet and still not need any licensing.
