Here is a custom jet amphibious aircraft!
It's a single jet engine, light aircraft capable of takeoff and landing on water! The power source is mounted on top of the fuselage. It also has two large wing-mounted floats with heavy-duty strut braces underneath, connecting to the underbelly of the fuselage.

@Liquidfox thanks for upvotes. I wonder if I should update it with the new inlet and add lights. And maybe tweaks
@kylew12 thx 4 feedback! But It works fine for me. Thanks.
its super cool and works very well but it just needs more power to do a water take off
@JTM55 ya welcome & thx!
@Ahtzee Thankyou for building such an AWESOME plane...
Her comes the jet plane!!!
BOOM!!!DEFINITELY inspired by the Heinkel salamander. The engine rules.
@kikasshes BRING IT ON! I wanna see a jet-powered amphibious aircraft by others! 🙂
