Kevin Beachy Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 > The MVP is a "triphibious" airplane, meaning it can land on earth, snow or water depending on gear. Certified as a Light Sport (S-LSA) airplane, it will cost about $189,00 when it finally hits the market in about 5 years. > With a retractible instrument panel and canopy, the nose of the airplane opens wideto resemble a bass boat. The plane can be outfitted with a pedestal seat in the front for fishing or other boating activities. I would use it for swooping in to fish Bill Dance's or Ray Scott's magic bass ponds.... Quote
RSM789 Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I can see it now, you hook into a feisty smallmouth, he zips to the side & jumps over the wing of your new "boat", then goes back under for good measure. Think of the stories Grits Gresham (R.I.P.) would have concocted fishing from that vessel... Quote
desmobob Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I've seen a great photo of Jimmy Buffet standing on the wing of his flying boat, fly fishing. It inspired me to buy a lottery ticket every once in a while. But man... $189K would buy a lot of Senkos! Tight lines, Bob 1 Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted October 18, 2014 Super User Posted October 18, 2014 Lol could you imagine just fishing then some guys flies down and lands one of those on the water, opens the hatch, and starts fishing hahaha... Quote
Super User Darren. Posted October 18, 2014 Super User Posted October 18, 2014 Well, some people will enjoy fishing remote spots that's for sure. Crazy, but awesome at the same time. Quote
Snakehead Whisperer Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 But man... $189K would buy a lot of Senkos! Depends on whether you buy the real Yamamoto Senkos, or not. $$$ 1 Quote
OntarioFishingGuy Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Imagine that. You can tell that whoever made that doesn't fish. The reel is upside down. 1 Quote
Kevin Beachy Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 Where would you store your rods while your flying Quote
