Triphibian Race


Recommended Posts

A race for amphibious seaplanes; test your speed over land, sea and through the air.

 

1) Drop a marker buoy at the western end of the runway.

2) Take off, fly ten kilometres east.

3) Land in the water, still ten kilometres from the buoy. Screenshot of your ship stationary in the water with the F4 marker showing the buoy more than ten kilometres away.

4) Sail back to land; stay in contact with the water the whole way. No flying.

5) Drive on land (again, no flying) back to within ten metres of the marker buoy (again, stationary screenshot with F4 showing) at the western end of the runway.

 

Stock parts only, liquid fuel only, all craft must have a proper aircraft cockpit with a Kerbal in it (no probe cores, capsules, lander cans or command chairs), no reaction wheels and torque must be disabled in cockpits. No physics-altering mods (1); Wheaton's Law applies.

Fastest time wins.

Demo run:

5 minutes 24 seconds. Not terribly fast, but it's just a demo.

 

(1) Except FAR; separate stock/FAR leaderboards if we have sufficient entries.
