The Taylor Coot was designed by Moulton Taylor and first flew in 1969. Taylor was probably more well known for his roadable airplane design, the Aerocar from the 1950s. A rare feature of the Coot is the low wing using the wing root as sponsons to stabilize the seaplane on the water. That dispenses with the need for wing tip floats, cutting down on weight and drag.

A hidden gem normally hangared at Langley/BC. The Coot design goes back to 1969, however this one was built in 2017 and on its first visit here.
