I thought you was right, carson, but these pics I've found on Aerofiles site are a bit misleading to me :eek:

Hi Marco
Aerofiles is also misleading for me.
There is a pic of XOSE1 with normal landing gear and of XOSE2 as a floatplane. Then again there is a pic of XOSE1 as floatplane!
As a result we don't know which is which:shock:

Hi Graeme, the Edo XOSE-1

Correct. How are you Emilio? I see you're continuing to rocket up the AviaQuiz charts! :)

Wasn't the EDO XOSE supposed to be a floatplane?:shock:

Hi Carson! It is. The undercarriage was called "Ferry Gear." Simply a method of moving the machine for cross-country flying. The wheels were then replaced with floats, and back into the water.

Thanks for the information Graeme.
BTW may I also take this opportunity to congratulate Emilio on his numerous medals won at Aviaquiz.
