But the only reason it ever got to fly is because that passion became an obsession. Today, we'll look at how Howard Hughes developed and maintained the H-4 Hercules over a period of decades, the history of seaplanes and flying boats, and why the Spruce Goose will be forever be remembered as a truly classic aircraft. ---------------------------------------------------- If you want to support the work I do on the channel, join my Patreon crew and get awesome perks and help me move the channel forward! 👉🏻 Our Connections: 👉🏻 Exclusive Mentour Merch: ? 👉🏻 Our other channel: 👉🏻 Amazon: 👉🏻 BOSE Aviation: Social: 👉🏻 Facebook: 👉🏻 Instagram: 👉🏻 Twitter: 👉🏻 Discord server: Download the FREE Mentour Aviation app for all the latest aviation content 👉🏻 Below you will find the links to videos and sources used in this episode.
