The world’s largest seaplane is still the Spruce Goose that Howard Hughs built.

They can call this one the Spruce Sluice.

Yeah, Howard Hughes couldn’t be reached for comment so they just went ahead and made a completely false claim.

Why ? Because they are stupid, inbred Chinese communist pieces of sh!t. I hate that country and everything they do. Feh.

But a lot of people are saying that the Spruce Goose isn’t an “amphibious” plane. It’s not an “airplane” it’s a ground effect plane. It wasn’t designed to actually take off - just fly a few feet above the water.

But still, screw the Chinese.
