Harbor Aviation Announces Breakthrough Trihull Aircraft Technology

High-speed amphibious aircraft capable of taking off from land and water—reducing travel times by as much as 50 percent

SEATTLE (February 14, 2006) — Harbor Aviation, an aviation technology company, has developed a patent-pending design technology that allows aircraft to efficiently take off and land from water and conventional runways and airstrips. The innovative high-speed amphibious aircraft is capable of cruising at the same speeds as business jets and solves the problems currently associated with conventional air travel (click here to see an image of the revolutionary design click here for link to tv news broadcast).

Developed for more than four years with strategic partner Kenmore Air, Harbor Aviation’s technology paves the way for inter-city air service to be based from waterfront locations. Door-to-door delivery times will be shorter than many of the check-in and waiting times for conventional aircraft at airports. Inter-city aircraft shuttle service could deliver passengers from:
Manhattan to the Chicago waterfront 140 minutes
Los Angeles to San Francisco Bay 70 minutes

This revolutionary design is flexible and adaptable to a variety of aircraft of various sizes – from small kit planes to 50 seat regional aircraft. Aircraft built using this design technology will also connect small towns and suburbs to large airports and use existing marinas and docks for passenger service.

“There are currently no plans to accommodate the growth of air travel in the U.S., while growing passenger traffic is resulting in longer delays and heavily congested airports,” said Russell Belden, Harbor Aviation’s president. “Our technology will offer a real alternative to the airport, and enable passengers to travel more quickly and comfortably than ever before.”

Harbor Aviation will license their patent-pending technology to aircraft manufacturers and designers for specific aircraft classes or sizes. For more images and further information, please visit www.harboraviation.com
