Many Happy Return Landings Chesley!
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station.

If you are seeing an apparent paradox, that means you are missing something.

It was never a flying boat, it was a plane, then a boat. It is now a museum piece.

More a landing boat than a flying one.


Although I suppose we could debate "landing" as well.
