Your average bush plane with a twist. It floats! Landing and taking off (in the water) is tricky though. To take off (in the water), have full pitch up. If left in the middle, it wil crash. To land (in the water), get low and slow, as slow as you can, then full pitch up until you drop into the water. You can let off the pitch when you get to ~ 40 mph. The more powerful engine was added for takeoff assistance. Throttle and trim levers were added in the cockpit for muh aest thetics.
