Regent Seaglider is the world's first hydrofoiling wing-in-ground-effect vehicle - covers distances up to 180 miles at speeds up to 180 mph.
A team of Kansas University aerospace engineering students just won an international prize for an amphibious aircraft design called the BATWinG — envisioned t
Argonas is a large ground effect aircraft designed to rapidly deliver supporting combat firepower to surface and coastal ground forces. The features of the Argonas are not definitive. The purpose of the configuration design effort is to understand what different features would be needed in such a vehicle. And, more importantly, discover the intersections and opportunities to thoroughy integrate technologies and and create a new physical form that performs as more than a sum of it’s parts.

This project was inspired by a project our class did in Design and Model back in 2013. A "skimmer" is a simple ground-effects vehicle shaped
Sea Cheetah's hydrogen-powered wing-in-ground (WiG) aircraft offers zero-emission, long-range coastal transport with enhanced efficiency.
In a lot of RC aircraft an electric or gas ducted fan is used as a source of propulsion. Hypothetically could a small aircraft piston motor be used to...

A surprise fuel diversion into Edinburgh today due to highwinds was this C-27J Spartan which is in the process of being delivered to no 35 Squadron of the Royal Australian Air Force.The aircraft departed Turin heading for Iceland when it needed to stop for a top up.Final destination for now is Texas where the aircraft will be fitted out with all the specified goodies that the RAAF want on the aircraft before finally arriving in Australia.Image taken using my Iphone.
1980s McDonnell Douglas unducted fan (UDF) technology was showed promise for reducing fuel consumption substantially.
ARF or RTF - Seagull Harmon Rocket - Is it just me, or does this thing look neater than he11?
Consolidated's descendant of their Catalina is the Coronado, which has the same single step hull design philosophy as well as wing floats which retract to become wing tips. It has twice the number of engines as well as multiple decks within the fuselage, though. A virtual tour can be taken of the beautifully restored Coronado at the National Naval…
