Abstract

A water propulsion system (100) for an aircraft is presented. The water propulsion system enables maneuvering of the aircraft, such as a seaplane, on the surface of water. The system can include waterjets (112) located on floats (14a, 14b) of the aircraft that enable maneuvering of the aircraft in forward, backward, and lateral directions as well as rotational motion. The systems are quieter in operation than the main engine of the aircraft and provide precision maneuvering for docking or active stabilization of the aircraft's position.
