Antilles Seaplanes, a North Carolina company, is currently developing the only commercially viable, multi-engine amphibious airplane available anywhere in the world. According to the company, Antilles G-21 series “Goose” seaplanes will be perfect for a wide variety of uses, “from Alaskan fishing to the Amazon rain forest.”

With rebuilt Pratt & Whitney piston engines, the G-21 will be priced at about $1.3 million, substantially less than similar conventional aircraft. With an FAA-approved upgrade to 680-horsepower turbine engines, it’ll cruise at more than 240 mph for up to 1,200 miles and sell for about $2.3 million.

An amphibious airplane can take off from and land on both water and land. The company is currently taking orders.
