AOPA: Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association
It is no accident that the new amphibian design envisioned by John Meekins and refined and engineered by the late Bill Husa bears more than a passing resemblance to the North American F-82 Twin Mustang. Meekins, a longtime pilot whose infatuation with aviation dates to his childhood, was searching for an amphibian about a decade ago that was fast, stable in the water, and able to carry his family. He tried a few, but none fit the bill. ^BW
