    Your really underrated yet so good! I watched this video because im making a model seaplane in real life and u wasn't sure if it would float but you explained it so nicely now i know what to do! (i'll update you on if it floats)

    Great video, your videos are always very easy to listen to compared to some other videos that use a lot unnecessary words and sentences to fill up time. I also think the memes are a nice touch, if people don't like them, try inserting comedy into the dialogue it honestly brightens the mood a bit :)

    I came to your channel from my recommended list because you are so pretty. I stayed and listened till the end because you are interesting and engaging with your topic. I am 67 now, learned to fly as a private pilot at 17 on a PA-28-180 1967 aircraft. The throttle was push-pull in the dashboard. It was before the more modern style. I also flew a Lake Amphibian where the body lands in the water, not on pontoons. The engine was a pusher prop. So all actions are reversed. BTW my Laker Aircraft could land on water or land. In water, you would lower the gear and go up a ramp right into our garage. It was very cool. Happy Trails

    Hi, Jenny--thanks for the video! I've taken seaplanes to/from Seattle to Victoria several times, but never knew how they really worked. Lots of good information! Btw, Captain Sully's flight was dubbed "Miracle on the Hudson" (River), as opposed to "Miracle on the Atlantic" (Ocean).

    Every time I'm walking by the amphibious planes at the airport, I am kind of impressed that the pilots manage to land those things without damaging the floats. They have to land basically completely flat. I don't usually land very flat.

    Amphibious flying boats do exist. The Grumman Goose, which you're showing top left here, at 2:49, can land on a runway when those wheels are deployed. Later models of the PBY Catalina could, too.

    Hey! I'm sure it's not a standard feature across the board, but all of the seaplanes Harbour Air uses between Nanaimo and Vancouver have variable pitch propellers.

    Some of Boeing's earliest aircraft were floatplanes. Several were bought and assembled in Auckland, New Zealand, to train pilots for the 1914-1918 war. (WWI)

    I've been researching air cushion landing gear a lot lately. I think a hovercraft-like landing gear would be a good fit for a land/sea/ice triphibious aircraft with a single landing system, ground loading would be low as well as low landing stresses, but I'm not sure what the best solution for landing with a total loss of power would be.

    • @av8bvma513
      @av8bvma513 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nope. As you alluded, no backup with power loss, but the reason they are not used is No Steering & No Brakes. Not very practical. Put that idea in the same 'boat' as Dirigibles and Balloons.

    "Hundreds of pounds of metal" oh boy...bere we go.
    "Straight float planes will only land on water" proceeds to show Olivia the turbo beaver which has anfibs.
    Talks about ailerons, shows flaps.
    Not sure if this was some sort of school projet but there were a lot of inaccuracies in this video.

    2:23 Does flying boats imply sea effect instead of ground effect?

    • @hkr667
      @hkr667 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, but it is still the exact same ground effect at work. It's just that the ground in this case is made out of water ;) You should watch Mustard's video "What Happened To Giant Ekranoplans?" for an awesome breakdown on this.

      @johnnychang4233 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@hkr667 By analogy I mean the little difference between taking off from a tranquil water lake is different from a surface with water ripple and waves. Does it effect the aerodynamic of the plane as such low level?

  • @michaelimbesi2314
    @michaelimbesi2314 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice video, but I’d like to point out that there’s a word for “water aerodynamics”. They’re called hydrodynamics and the field predates aerodynamics.

    • @stephenwest6738
      @stephenwest6738 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'd imagine that the physics involved are a combination of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics. I'd also imagine that being it's a plane and not a submarine, the aerodynamics involved are far more consequential than the hydrodynamics. She may have been attempting to convey that the aerodynamics involved might be affected by the water under it. After all, isn't hydrodynamics movement in water, not on water?

      IMO Jenny's videos are fine, but yeah, it's a fine line to walk. I've unsubscribed to Half As Interesting for that exact reason.
