SURVEY ON SEAPLANE HYDRO-SKI DESIGN TECHNOLOGY. PHASE 1: QUALITATIVE STUDY

Abstract

The report is the first part of a two-phase study for the survey and analysis of hydro-ski seaplane technology. As such, it contains qualitative correlations of the results of As such, it contains qualitative correlations of the results of all data to define optimum hydro-ski shape, spray characteristics, and longitudinal, lateral, and directional stability during take-off and landing. A bibliography of hydro-ski technology is also included.
