The Dornier Seastar gets my vote and the Chinese 4 engine amphibian was very interesting. That one reminded me of Martin Marlin flyingboat.

I love the Dornier, it incorporates design features introduced by Claudius Dornier that date back to 1915, yet it's up-to-the-minute modern.

My Favorite is the Dornier Seastar Because of the Distance and the Passenger Limit.

Dornier Seastar has been a favorite of mine since I first saw it years ago. I'd love to ride in it, as it is way out of my budget.

Personally, I would have made two parts to this video Single Engine Sea and Multi-engine Sea and that way the Progressive Aerodyne’s Searey would have potentially made the list since it’s been flying for over 28 years and the company has sold nearly 800 aircraft worldwide.

Interesting video. I have followed a number of these airplanes and I have always loved the Dornier Seastar. A couple of airplanes to consider for any future videos. The Shin Meiwa US-2 is an outstanding aircraft that has been around in earlier versions (US-1) since the 1970s. It deserves to be on your list. There are also a number of Russian designs that aren’t on here. Examples are the Borey LSA and LA-8 amphibians as well as the SeaBear amphibious flying boat. I am still waiting for the final design that Burt Routan is working on and I hope to see it soon. Don’t forget the various Beriev amphibians which is a Ukrainian company. In particular, I like the Be-103 and the Be-200. Thanks for the video and I look forward to your next one.

@@Amiga3000D Well, if it's just a mistake, although, to be honest, looking at the actions of your government, it's not very hard to believe in mistakes. Well, for the future, in order to avoid "mistakes" ... the so-called "Ukraine" has nothing of its own: the anthem is a reworking of Polish, the flag was invented by the Swedes, the coat of arms - by the Austro-Hungarians ... however, "Ukraine" itself is Austrian Hungarians invented in 1890. The cities of "Ukraine" were built by the Germans, Poles and Russians. The language is a wild mixture of distorted Russian, Polish and German words. The lands within the boundaries of the present "Ukraine" were collected by the Russian tsars, Lenin and Stalin. Industry ... including design bureaus, was created by the Russians. And "Ukrainians" cannot create anything, only steal. Russians have had a saying for a hundred years: "If the hohol (nickname for Ukrainians) has not stolen anything, then the day is wasted."

I Also Like the Avic Jiaolong for its Passenger Capacity and the Distance Limit. The Price Mention did not seem too Extreme for what it Provides and for the Remote Areas that it can Access on Land and Water.

Designed in Germany by German 'Dornier'. Financial troubles, lots of would be backers ended up majority owned by Chinese company but still ended up being built in Germany. Chinese partner is/has building a manufacturing plant in China too so not sure where they will end up being manufactured in the future. It only got certification a couple of years ago I think 🤔 My bet is they will all be made in China once the factory is completed. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Why not include icon A5,where it folded wings and not mention in your vlog, it is made in USA.

I like the plane you cite as your # 1 choice. I’d like an option of tripling the engine horse power in a 4 place sports model perhaps converting to turbo prop engines with high altitude lake performance and climb rates for 7,000 to 20,000 foot above sea level short distance takeoffs. Also would like built in wingtop solar panels for camp outs able to charge up all the electronic junk we try to escape from, but always need to keep with us. 4 200 pound adults, 1 hunting door, and able to carry camping equipment and two weeks supply of drinking water and food. More than happy to give up passenger capacity for good performance and good range in the sports model. And an emergency zero-zero parachute system for the fully loaded aircraft. Also willing to give up 50 mph of cruse speed for all this stuff. It should also be able to handle hard landing and g-forces without the wings and engines over stressed and falling off. Would like state of the art Garmin panels pilot, copilot, and back seat panels for back seat drivers and back seat seat kids entertainment center.

Forget the chute - twin engine. Don't carry bulk water. Get it from your lake or instal desal - still less weight than unstable water! Need small quad to fit in hunting door. Definitely turbo props, climb rate of 4,000 is ambitious but cool, pressurised naturally, with 31,000 ceiling and even longer range. Nice quiet little gen set. Under wing points for attaching hammocks, slide out camp kitchen, external heated shower and an auto inflatable floating air dock. Oh, built in rod holders and stubby holders around the plane ... obviously!
