Roy LoPresti's Spectra Aircraft - New design for amphibious aircraft

Описание к видео Roy LoPresti's Spectra Aircraft - New design for amphibious aircraft

This is a design Roy worked on in the 60's. He had a patent on putting the engine on the vertical tail of the plane. The wing tips were also very special and eliminated roll over issues. Basically, with this tip, you could not "bury" the wing tip in water.

This aircraft also had a unique retractable step for the fuselage so the plane would "plane" quickly on the water and then that step would retract in flight to eliminate drag.
