What makes this bird truly different is that it can either be towed behind a 70-hp ski boat or it can have a 90-hp Continental pylon mounted above the fuselage to fly the Flightsail under its own power. The structure is built from bolted aluminum, foam, and epoxy. This two-seater amphibian features twin booms and twin tails.
