摘要

Two lateral spars (1) are arranged in a V, which is bisected by a central main spar. A cross bar acts as a spacer for the spars. A mast (5) at the crossing point (6) supports guy wires (7, 8, 9). Uprights fixed to the crossbar form, with a crossbar (14), the steering control and can be prolonged telescopically and elastically to support wheels (16) skids, skis or floats. A curved bar (18) runs from the leading point (11) to the centre of a foot- and axle bar and includes a towing hook (19) strengthened by a guy wire to central point (6). The pilot is suspended from point (6) by a harness (25). The pilot can operate a control cable opening the towing hook (19) at a desired height.
