Amphibious Aircraft

Aircraft that can land and take off from both water and land with a hull and retractable wheels, used for rescue, firefighting, commuter flying and naval observation. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the aircraft an amphibious aircraft or amphibian. It excludes flying boats that operated from water only. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
