Invent Plane to Swim in Water
An airplane claimed to revolutionize flying will be submitted to practical tests. Inventors describe it as unlike any prior craft, a ship with wings. Details are kept secret, with emphasis on its aquatic capabilities and testing phase.
Amphibious aircraft envisioned for sea and air use
A new amphibious craft is described as capable of floating on calm seas and riding rough waters with security similar to an Atlantic liner. The hull is long and slender with no bulkheads, yielding elasticity from years of research. The experimental model carries seven, with future designs for larger versions. It may run four to six engines, reach 100 mph, and include fog horns and riding lights. It could voyage on water when not airborne and support a battle fleet. Commercial versions could cross the Atlantic in under 48 hours with a heavy load.
