50 tons takeoff weight, and 900 feet (300 meters) takeoff and landing distance on the water at loaded weight. It is almost incredible, but you can see on my video compilation several times. The ShinMaywa US-2 amphibian has a unique boundary layer control system, which uses compressed air from the slit of the flaps to prevent air flow separation and increase lift. This ground effect flight and the special design of his boat body allows the amphibian to land in high sea waves that would inaccessible for other seaplanes. #shinmaywaus2 #amphibian #giantflyingboats
