The SEA STORM is sleek, streamlined appearance is impressive.
It is a high wing, pusher configuration, tail dragger.
The engines are mounted on the top of the wings.
The cabin is designed with side-by-side seating.
Entry into the cabin is easy: open the canopy doors and step over the sponsons into the cockpit.
Upon seating yourself, you will find there is plenty of elbow room ( 44 inches ), even for the "big guys".
The adjustable seats are comfortably cushioned, and you will find the side pockets handy for storing necessary paperwork, maps, small tools and more.
The dual flight controls enable flying from either seat, and there is enough space on the instrument panel to accomodate most any instruments you care to install.
The rear places are in corrispondence of the aircraft center of gravity and the space inside results extraordinary.
The throttle, landing gear switch and other breakers are on top of console and are easy to reach.

Ground handling is simple and uneventful.
The landing gear is rugged and handles even unimproved grass runways with ease.
The take off on roll water at gross weight is 11 - 13 seconds, depending on the engines option installed.
Lift off takes place at 45 - 50 mph, and 65 - 70 mph is the best rate of climb speed.
Rate of climb is 600 - 800 feet per minute at gross weight, once again depending of the engines choice.
Level out and throttle back to cruising rpm's and the SEASTORM settles in at 85 mph.

Control pressure are light and responsive.
The SEASTORM offers stable handling even in gusty wind conditions.
Directional stability is very good, with no tendency to hunt due to the large vertical tail surface.
Aileron pressure is light and should be led with a small amount of rudder input.
Pitch control of the aircraft is well dampened.
Upon release of the control stick, pitch stability is achived within one oscillation.
Due to the installation of special leading edge extensions on the wings, the stall is quite docile and the aircraft is spin resistant.
Upon throttling back and applying 20 degrees of flaps, the aircraft slows to the stall speed of 44 - 46 mph.
The stall is gentle and straightforward and recovery is conventional.
Release aft stick pressure and the aircraft begins flying almost immediately with little nose down attitude.

Giving power the SEA STORM move immediately to the sponsons and to redan consequently.
Attain the requested speed you are just in fly!

A true amphibian aircraft, it is the embodiment of everything man has ever envisioned for vehicle ?
Movement from land to water, water to water, or water to land.

This aircraft is truly in a class by itself.
It weights approximately 900 pounds when fueled, has a range of 800 miles cruising at just under 120 mph with standard engines.
It boasts room for two people, luggage and fishing pole or two while maintaining unrivaled visibility.
It can be equipped with optional turbo charged engines to get you in and out of tight places easier plus improve overall take off and landing performance.
The SEASTORM will dominate the sea-plane segment of not only the LSA market but of the Flight Centers looking to train pilots for the extra rating.

The SEA STORM LSA can be used for VFR night flight, and or IFR flight operations, provided the aircraft is equipped with the FAA minimal required airman certificate and ratings for operating aircraft VFR at night, or under IFR flight conditions.

This aircraft offers performance, pleasure, economy, and safety to the sport pilot, but it also provides all other certificated airmen new opportunities for seaplane ratings and affordable aircraft ownership.
This aircraft can get you above the traffic-jams, and highway stress, get you there and back for much less fuel and time than an automobile can.
