Rutan SkiGull
The Rutan SkiGull is an amphibious aircraft designed by aviation legend Burt Rutan, whose designs have circled the Earth and made it to space.〔http://www.popsci.com/legendary-plane-designer-burt-rutan-tests-seaplane〕
==Development==
The SkiGull is a two seat composite/titanium aircraft equipped with retractable ski undercarriage that can have wheels attached for water, snow or land operations, landing on around 400 feet of surface, but with a range to cross oceans. The engine is configured to operate with Swift, auto or boat fuel. The aircraft is being developed privately.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.avweb.com/avwebflash/news/Rutans-Next-Airplane-In-The-Works-223682-1.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Aerospace Guru Burt Rutan Talks About SkiGull, His Next Plane )〕
Public disclosure of the SkiGull design was made at the EAA's Airventure convention in 2015. Details included ability to operate in ocean waves, 140 knot cruise speed (optionally 177 knots turbocharged), quiet flight, water takeoff in 460 feet, 47-foot igh-wing span (foldable), ground transportation without a trailer, a 44-percent-span Fowler flap, and two electric motors with reversible propellers to simplify docking and give optional takeoff power.〔http://www.aopa.org/News-and-Video/All-News/2015/July/22/SkiGull-Details-Revealed〕
The SkiGull performed water tests in October 2015. It has two 12hp electric motors for docking, but they can also fly the plane 8 miles without the piston engine. The plane can loiter for 35 hours.〔http://www.flyingmag.com/news/burt-rutan-takes-skigull-water〕 First flight tests in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho lasting 1.8 hours were successfully completed November 24, 2015. Tests included basic stability and control in cruise configuration and with flap down and skis extended.〔http://www.eaa.org/en/eaa/eaa-news-and-aviation-news/2015-news/11-24-2015-rutans-skigull-first-flight〕
