It does not look like our love of the flying boat is quite over yet.
Russian Beriev Be-200, and Canadian Canadair CL-215/415 families and many other aircraft are capable of being fitted out with floats. These machines will continue to provide a good service in far flung places. The Be-200 is reported to be a good fire fighting machine and the Irkutsk factory has been able to offer several variants of this modern jet powered vehicle.
But what new developments and concepts are for the future and what have we learned from what we have to what we can do.
