[ad_1]

The amphibious ICON A5 is a stylish two-seater sports plane that looks like a car, compares to a jet ski and is easy to fly, requiring less than 30 hours training for even novice pilots, according to the manufacturers. At 23 feet long and weighing in at 1,510 pounds, the ICON A5 is considered a sea light-sport aircraft. Designed with manoeuvrability in mind, the plane was built with a greater focus on the freedom of flying, rather than the precision required in traditional aircraft. The company have opened a flight-training facility at Peter O. Knight Airport in California, as well an additional centre in Vacaville. The aircraft has been 10 years in development and is available for a deposit of $207,000.
