Ok Leslie, I heard a different story. What I heard was that in order to land the float-coupe the rudders had to be disconnected so spin testing was required. During spin testing the test pilot had aileron flutter, lost the aileron and had to bail (with a parachute). The airplane was lost but the pilot did not die. Of course this is from memory and was hearsay to begin with. But our conclusions are the same. There are no certified float-coupes.
