They say that it is very difficult to land a sea plane on the ‘glossy water’. Wonder then how it works if you’ve got an amphibian aircraft with ‘glass cockpit‘?
So, this brief post is an announcement for a chat on the topic of amphibian aircraft from Beriev Design Bureau.
Hopefully, we’ll have an audience interested in this kind of exchange. I don’t guarantee it for sure, but we might expect something ‘unexpected’ :_)
You folks are strongly encouraged to join this talk,
Cheers,
Clash

This is the coolist Russian plane. They are WAY ahead of the West where we operate ex-WWII Invaders & Cansos and mod airliners. All we have new is the 215.

Eric,
to heck with polit-correctness
- a square question:
what do you think, would it be worthwhile to test one of the Be-200 on the firefighting missions in BC, or Alberta?
