Hi to all flighters!
I'm looking for an anphibious for a long journey around the world. The only anphibious that I could find till now was the original FS2004 Cessna and I think that's a very slow one for my purpose. Could you guys help me? Have you got some advice or sugestions?
Thanks  Smiley

There's a neat little freeware amphibious bizjet (conceptual) called the Atkinson AJ2... avilable at fsjets among others. There's a couple more concept jet amphibs out there too... the "Sky Frigate" and the "Ampjet". I've only flown the AJ2; it's sweet.

Amphibious - Look for the later Beriev A-400(?)

If you can settle for a flying boat, try the P6M Seamaster - (the real on went supersonic in a shallow dive)

Have a look for the Ekranoplan A-90 Orlenok, it won´t fly high, but it goes to 360 knots withuout much trouble...

I found it here:

http://www.fs2000.org/last/news.asp?id=2173

But Ozzy, since when is the Sea Fury Amphibious, I can´t imagine it to land on the water......  Roll Eyes

xutabola:
What sim are you using?
I have designed something that meets your spec but I have no idea how it will behave in FS9 as I don't have that sim.

The model is a bit basic as it is only meant to be a test bed for a much better (and smaller) version.

If you find the idea of a turboprop with joined wings, a stepless hull, tail mounted engine, retracts and a cruise of 320 knots or so then drop me an email.

I am looking forward to Project Skyworks (http://project-skyworks.vze.com) releasing their Beriev Be-200 and the Beriev A-40.  Both of these planes are jet powered and look very good in the previews.

You may try this Beech Volpar than:

FS2004 Beechcraft Model 18 Volpar on Amphibious Floats.  -  That´s the one to get from here:
http://www.simviation.com/fs2004props41.htm

That´s a great plane, it fly´s well and looks great.

Hi xutabola!! Smiley

Unfortunataly, what you're looking for I don't think there is. There is'nt going to be a plane that can go 400kts, not be very big, and can land on water if you know what I mean. Wink

But there have been some good suggestions here. I would reccomend the Beech Volpar. Smiley
