Seaplane

The Sabarmati River and Chilika Lake may get aerodromes, keeping in line with the Government's plans for seaplanes.

This first flight will travel between Sabarmati river and Dharoi dam in Gujarat.

The seaplane is fitted with the engine of a Maruti Omni car and has a maximum speed of 100 km per hour. This comes as an advantage, for regular boats cannot operate at such an elevated speed in the backwaters.
