"A floatplane (float plane or pontoon plane) is a type of seaplane, with one or more slender pontoons (known as \"floats\") mounted under the fuselage to provide buoyancy. By contrast, a flying boat uses its fuselage for buoyancy. Either type of seaplane may also have landing gear suitable for land, making the vehicle an amphibious aircraft."@en . . . . . .
