NA-88 Cygnus Buccinator

Auto Credit Based on TopSecret2's Bd-5 (unflyable!)

With a design inspired by the Bede BD-5J, the NA-88 Cygnus Buccinator is not at all very capable of high altitude flight. However, with a deck stability of only 500ft (152.4 meters) the capabilities are endless. Its primary design as a personal watercraft makes it far easier to land in water, however you may have an easier time taking off on land..Just be sure you keep the gears retracted for landing on water and make sure you have enough runway space to land on a tarmac.
