REGENT is another company we're following given their quiet, steady progress. They issued this press release earlier this month: « REGENT and HITRANS Collaborate on Feasibility of Seaglider Vessels for North Scotland Coastal Travel ». | 🛩️ 🦆 ⚡️ 📰 🥇 | 🧵 1/2 | 🔗 www.regentcraft.com/news/….
A flying boat of fairly conventional configuration 'flies' above the surface of the water on hydrofoils. It's leaving little in the way of wake given the hydrofoils are the only part of the aircraft making contact with the water. The aircraft is flying away and slightly to the left. The aircraft's primary means of floatation is the large, boxy fuselage itself, with lateral balance being sustained by tip floats extending down from the wingtips on each side of the aircraft. There are three vertical stabilisers joined at their tops by a horizontal stabiliser. A total of twelve small motor/propellor units are arrayed across the wing's leading edge. A short distance behind the aircraft, a powerboat gives chase, following the wake of the aircraft. The attention of the boat's occupants is the aircraft. The sky above is gin-clear blue and is reflected in the ocean, turning it into a vivid blue colour as well. In the distance, there is a shoreline consisting of very low, rolling hills. On the right side of the frame, there are port facilities, including a couple of cranes. (📸 REGENT Craft Inc.)

What with it being the equinox and the attendant change of seasons, we tried to find the summeriest picture possible to either honour the season just past here in the 🌎 North or to foreshadow the glorious season to come in the 🌏 South. (📸 composite-rc-gliders.com?utm_source=b...) | 🛩️ 📡 🪽 🥇
A man launches a radio-controlled glider from a raised plateau overlooking a lake set amongst a conifer forest. The glider is covered in a transparent yellow film, revealing the internal framework of the glider. The aircraft appears to be approximately three metres in span. It's flying away from the camera and slightly to the left and is airborne about a half metre above the man. It is also banking slightly to the right. Sailboats dot the lake below, and a small number of structures line a small part of the lakeshore. It's a sunny day with what seems to be a thin overcast. (📸 Composite RC Gliders)

83 years ago today! It is extraordinary that two of these machines still grace the sky (Doc & FiFi). Attached is a video of Doc’s home in Wichita (2/2) & my flight with FiFi in Kenosha, WI (3/3). Hats off to those who commit their time & expertise to “keep em flying” 😎 1/3 🛩️ #Aviation #AvGeek

We've been talking air racing this month, so it's fitting that we recently stumbled upon the « Cliff Henderson Special Collection » in the San Diego Air & Space Museum archives. Henderson managed the National Championship Air Races from '28 to '39. | 🛩️ 🥇 | 🧵 1/3 | 🔗 www.flickr.com/photos/sdasm...
An old black-and-white photo of a man standing in front of a racing airplane during what appears to be a race meeting of some sort. The aircraft is a single-seat, low-wing monoplane. It is pointed toward and slightly to the right of the camera position. The aircraft has fixed landing gear with wheel fairings. The wing is braced with a number of wires both on the upper and lower surfaces. The man is wearing a collared, white shirt and darker pants, and he is slightly smiling but not looking directly at the camera. The only identifying details for the aircraft are the registration « N225Y » and « Miles and Atwood Special » painted on the vertical stabiliser. The race number « 4 » is painted on the fuselage. A number of other aircraft are visible in the background. White appears to be a control tower; it is also visible. The shadow of the photographer is visible in the foreground, making it appear as though the sun is low on the horizon. (📸 Cliff Henderson Special Collection via the San Diego Air & Space Museum)

Heckuva morning at Moontown (3M5). Most planes I've ever seen here! One landing every 10-15 seconds for 30 minutes. Constant action!
