    While we're dreaming, how about building it as a four place with twin Yamahas? Or take the back seats out and have a huge baggage compartment....? Someone bring this to Mike Patey's attention immediately!

    You would be interested in a special one off plane built by Aerofab in Sanford Maine back during the early 70s. I can't recall what they called it nor can I find a picture. It was a land plane which resembled a Teal amphibian with an observer nose. It was custom built for someone in California. I believe he was a regular author for an aviation magazine. I'd remember his name if someone mentioned it.

    Aerofab (originally Colonial and then Lake) was the home of the Colonial and Lake amphibians.

    We stumbled across Ascender in 2018 in McCarthy. What an amazing airplane. Sure would love to get an update on it.
