Damnit! I thought it would have taken longer to guess that. Louren gets a cookie. Here's a pic of this beast in action.
I was quite surprised when I saw it. Made me do a double take.

I say he gets the cookie, unless spelling counts. It's an Oldsmobile Toronado. |

Its a contraption they use to move the planes out to the runway. |

| That de Havilland doesn't look like it's on amphib floats, but straight aquatic floats... does the car lift it off the ground to move it? |

It has a mechanism that swings up and lifts the float plane. I've seen something like this backwoods unit where they dry store them in the winter. Check out the pic:

| mabey it lifts the plane on floats and gets it up to speed along the runway then when it's goin fast enough it just lifts from the platform................ thats something i am going to invent if i am wrong!!! |

you'd have to sycronize the engines on the plane with the speed that the car is moving. But i think it would be possible.
Dont some floats have wheels in them anyways? |

Some do, Aaron, but I see no front wheels on that plane.
Just a quirky observation... |
