Default RE: seamaster plane questions


ORIGINAL: crash bandicoute

<span style=''font-family: Comic Sans MS''>i'm new to seaplanes. heck, i got a set of GP sport floats just finished and haven't tried them out yet. i heard the first few times landing on them is wicked evil. do the flat bottom planes handle better than the tunnel hull or deep 'v' ones? someone was talking about that and ROW'ing. what is that? they said the flat bottom ones were better. but i ain't going out to row anything.</span>
In general, any "Flying Hull" design is easier that a standard plane on floats. Personally, i think the Seamaster is the ideal first seaplane provided you can handle anything beyond an intermediate trainer. If you can't, NO seaplane is good!
