We bring seaplane aviation closer to people
A slightly more than 100 thousand dollars a two seater seaplane is on the sale in Los Angeles. The speciality of this plane is that its wing can be folded, so it is possible to store it in a garage or to transport it on a trailer like a motorboat.

It is a rare possibility for a grandchild to resurrect his grandfather’s legendary plane. Iren Dornier renewed a Dornier Do-24 ATT seaplane then flew around the world with it. He has been using this plane since then. When we took these pictures the amphibia rested on the water of the Wolfgangsee in Austria in front of the Scalaria Hotel.
