aviatoreb Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Look ma no part 23 rewrite needed. I want one: https://www.deepflight.com/dragon/ Plus the best part: "At 1800 kg and only 5 m in length, the Dragon is able to fit on more yachts than any other submarine on the market, with little or no retrofit required."

Hank Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) But it weighs too much to carry in my Mooney . . . That's alright, though, since I can't retrofit floats anyway. Other than that, it looks like lots of fun! Edited February 26, 2017 by Hank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1964-M20E Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Just wait until the FOA(Federal Ocean Administration) is established. Then you will have part 23OA which will state you can put anything on it even people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piloto Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Is it IFR equipped?. Under water visibility is less than a mile. José Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_elliott Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 With the drugs a lot of those will probably be packing, I imagine it will be IFR inside the sub... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - what I want is a supercavitating submarine that can go faster than the speed of sound underwater....5800km/hr No kidding - it is a real concept - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3664723/US-Navy-developing-supersonic-submarine-cut-ocean-speed-sound-using-bubble.html Imagine fighter-jet like machines dog fighting underwater. Or crossing the ocean in a little over an hour underwater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
