Hello Paul, I'm Rodolfo Z. Alvarez, a businessman from the
Philippines. I used to fly in my younger years & owned an Ercoupe,
then a Cessna 140, & finally, a V-tail Bonanza. I would now like to
fly again, thus this request for subscription to your newsletter.
I'm particularly interested in amphibious aircraft since our country
is an archipelago of 7000+ islands Offhand, would a Mazda rotary be
a good alternative engine for a Coot or even a Seawind? Thank you.

We have both in the works. The Coot is flying. It gets on the step
and out of the water in just a few second with the NOS :) Lots of
fun.

Here are some pictures.

A 3 rotor or turbo 2 rotor would be needed for a Sea Wind.

Here are some coming from YouTube: http://youtu.be/P-3XOD17Jug

There was a french homebuilt seaplane, the size not too different
from a Grumann Albatross, high wing, two engines, painted in yellow,
but I'm unable to locate the videos now, it included a flight to some
Pacifc islands.. Enjoy this, if you like. Salut †

Jose, search for "Stephanie peyron explorer" on YouTube, I think
that's the plane you thinking of, it was built for national
geographic,
