Isn't this just an electric sea plane?

I guess "electric" is the key.

My ever suspicious mind is pondering why they did not show the landing !

Anwar Bhai, they havent shown anything actually ! :headscratch:.....a clip of less than a minute with two scenes to prove flight (one resemble like a powerboat jumped off the water surface)

From the FAQ:


Do I need a pilot's license to operate FlyNano?

According to the European Aviation Safety Association regulation; passed by the European parliament in 2008 - FlyNano is below the necessary weight of 70kg, which means that national authorities decide on the classification. In Finland for example it's a class C-glider and no classification, aviation license or medical certification are needed at all. Nevertheless a good understanding of water plane operation, rules and aviation safety is requested. We will clear the situation in several countries around the world within the following months. For further information please check your local authority.
