This amphibious craft is a great all-purpose, multi-surface vehicle. The Cessna Caravan Amphibian is a pragmatic aircraft in a variety of situations. Whether you're taking the family out on a beautiful Nor'Easter morning flight or trying to distance yourself some lonely night from your unfaithful wife Lindsey who slept with your brother while you were away on business and still won't admit her faults, which has become an immense strain on your relationship and the kids, this sturdy Cessna will be perfect for your outing. The aircraft is equipped with two pontoons that provide buoyancy to make taking off and landing a breeze. There are currently no wheels attached to the plane, so takeoff and landing is only possible on water. Nevertheless, this Cessna Caravan Amphibian is easy to fly and a pleasure to pilot. Feel free to make adjustments as you see fit. Enjoy!

Notes: When taking off from the water, open the throttle and accelerate to approximately 130 mph before easing the nose upward. The plane should lift off soon thereafter.
When landing on water, ease back on the throttle until slowing the speed to approximately 180 mph or slower. Ideally, the plane should be parallel to the water before the pontoons meet the surface. Tilt the nose of the plane upward to allow the tail end of the pontoons touch the water, then lower the nose to allow the plane to glide across the water.


Cheers.
