I have seen another version of that plane/car. It did not have the twin boom and was way less bulky. These are neat though.

Our own Molt Taylor, right here in Longview WA had the first one in the air.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerocar
I seen the repainted orange version that is at the longview/kelso air port take to the skys a few years ago at a airshow here. As soon as he lifted off, one of the cylinders went lean and it started trailing black smoke. the pilot did a quick abort and brought the thing back down safely. White faced and shaking when he crawled out.
