Technical aspects include:
o Superior amphibious design - 13 integrated float zones
o Hydraulic braking
o Landing gear suspension
o Wings optimize ground/water effect
o Tactical engine placement
o Landing gear is lowered/retractable while in water, landing gear bays do not retain water
o Reverse Pitch props
The Be-103 light multipurpose amphibious aircraft is a monoplane with low-set water-displacement wing
with a root strake, all-moving horizontal tail located in the propeller blow zone, and tricycle landing gear.
A unique feature of the amphibious aircraft includes implementation of a water-displacement wing
concept, which improves seaworthiness and stability when moving on water. Power plants are two IO-
360ES4 piston engines made by Teledyne Continental Motors (USA) each rated at 210 h.p. The engines
are mounted on horizontal pylons on both sides of the hull above the rear part of the center wing section,
providing protection to the propellers against water spray during take-off and landing on water. The
aircraft is fitted with MTV-12-D-C-F-R (M) variable-pitch three-blade reversible propellers which allow for
easy manuvering on land and sea.
The low-set wing (in relation to hull) provides for wing-in-ground effect during take-off and landing.
Thanks to this feature the aircraft does not need flaps and can skim on the wings trailing edges. This also
makes aircraft construction simpler.
The hull is wide enough to provide a comfortable cabin for passengers and sufficient space for cargo and
luggage.
There are a total of 6 seats (1 pilot/5 passenger).
