SpinDevCorp Stormbird Amphibian Seaplane v1.0 (Late TL6)
Copyright 2006 by Onno Meyer
SpinDevCorp sells kits and plans for the Stormbird on underdeveloped
worlds which cannot maintain contragrav technology or jet engines. The
seaplane needs only a river or lake, a pier and a few fuel tanks as an
airport, and ordinary mechanics should understand the manuals for the
internal combustion engines.
This is what bugs me about traveller. "We'll import low-tech crap!"
Not a chance! You might be able to sell a vehicle like this, but
you'd do it with TL9 or so tech, which would give a maintance interval
of roughly the time before someone would fly it into a mountain,
anyway.
