rahim heads three companies responsible for the former lake amphibians : sun lake aircraft , formerly lake aircraft , will market and sell the types at its kissimmee , florida base ; manaero , formerly aerofab , will build and support the aircraft at sanford , maine ; and global amphibian , formerly revo , holds intellectual property rights and type certificates . former lake owner armand rivard will continue to supply present owners with wing - modification kits issued under a previous airworthiness directive .
fairbanks — a recent survey of eielson air force base’s lady of the lake confirmed that the aircraft had a noteworthy history in the air before it was abandoned to its gravel pit lake grave .
“the sale of lake aircraft is a rare opportunity to quickly set up manufacturing operations and continue production of the successful line of amphibious airplanes , ” said armand rivard , president of revo inc . , the lake aircraft holding company . “in the worldwide general aviation market , the lake amphibian has no faa - certified competition in production today . ”

because it’s a landmark the aircraft has attracted numerous stories , some of them true , eielson base historian jack waid said .
waid is looking for oral history about the lady of the lake , especially from anyone who may have historical photos of the aircraft or its transfer to the gravel pit . he invites people to call him at

some design changes were made by strayer which included lengthening the nose to enclose the nose gear when retracted , and adding 2 more feet to each wing , which resulted in 50 pounds more useful load . colonial aircraft corporation under herbert lindblad built the parts for lake aircraft and david thurston went on to other enterprises and designs . strayer built about 24 lake amphibians during 1960 and 1961 and unfortunately went out of business . no aircraft were built in 1962 . strayer was later to work for pepsi , skywriting the word “pepsi” all over the country .

the familiar mantra was prevalent around northern michigan in the early 1940s , when a pair of u . s . navy aircraft carriers traversed lake michigan on daily pilot training operations the local folks knew about but didn ' t discuss .
bell and safran have agreed to work together to develop hybrid - electric power systems for bells evtol aircraft concept , the two . . .
oral tradition persists among the old timers that an amphibian air plane landed on the lake and was unable to fly out . it was supposedly packed out in pieces up the lake trail .
rahim aims to ramp up production from one aircraft a year to one a month , once demand supports it .
it won ' t happen straight away . but with a consistent marketing effort and improvements to the aircraft ' s interior , we expect a lot of interest .
efforts to locate and recover the two aircraft that collided were unsuccessful until the end of january 1941 , when nomad # 3512 was found in lake muskoka . the aircraft was partially raised and the body of lac gosling was recovered , but the body of sgt francis was only recovered from the lake later that june . there was no trace of nomad # 3521 or lac bates and f / l campbell , at least not until decades later when members of lamp began their search .

revo purchased the rights to the lake aircraft company in the early ' 70s and manufactured and marketed the airplanes almost continuously since then from its facilities in florida , new hampshire , and maine . the offered assets include the faa type certificate , global manufacturing and marketing rights , component and assembly tooling , dies , jigs , an assortment of spare parts , and engineering drawings for the lake amphibian airplanes . a team of lake experts is available to assist in the transition and continued production .
wadi rahim , the new owner of the lake family of companies , has pledged to restart amphibious aircraft manufacture at the us company following completion of the acquisition last month . product enhancements are also planned , says rahim , in an effort to stimulate sales of the renegade , turbo renegade and the multi - mission sea wolf seaplanes at lake , which had become a parts supplier .

rahim says :
we intend to build aircraft instead of [ like lake ] leaving the production lines idle . although we will continue to produce spare parts , our main focus will be building civilian models , the renegade and turbo renegade , where we expect the demand , mostly from owner flyers , to be strongest .
the other nomad , # 3512 , carried lac william gosling , another recent graduate and sergeant lionel francis , also an instructor from the raf . the two nomads were part of a 50 - aircraft search party looking for a third missing aircraft , nomad # 3503 , flown by lac clayton hopton ( also from 1 sfts ) . it had failed to return to base on the previous day .

jim griffin , the museum’s director , says that the b - 25 is being preserved , not restored to pre - crash condition . the decision was based in part on the aircraft’s damage , which the museum judged too extensive to repair . when the bomber hit the lake , for example , the right engine had been torn off .
lake michigan was chosen for the secret training because it ' s the largest body of water within the contiguous united states , said wetzel .
“i have the base papers ( newspapers ) from the time period , and there’s nothing . there’s nothing that talks about this move of a very large aircraft , which is very surprising , ” waid said .
responding to demand from governmental clients for enhanced multipurpose capabilities , lake modified the structure to accommodate greater gross weight , expanded fuel capacity , and additional internal passenger and cargo configurations . designated the seawolf , this lake model is equipped with under - wing hard points for installation of external payloads .
wetzel said between 8 and 12 pilots died during the training and about 100 planes now rest on the lake bottom after crashing during training missions .
an alternate theory was the lady of the lake was a kb - 29 re - fueler with a less interesting service record , he said .
the plane was one of almost 4 , 000 b - 29’s built during and shortly after world war ii . it’s the same type of aircraft as the enola gay , which dropped an american atomic bomb on hiroshima .
sunday ' s article
eielson’s ‘lady of the lake’ had role in cold war
misspelled the name of eielson air force base historian jack waid .
the lady of the lake didn’t crash in the gravel pit lake . the conventional wisdom was it was intentionally placed there for water rescue training . waid estimates it was probably placed sometime between 1954 and 1956 when the wb - 29 became obsolete . but the document trail on that is frustratingly empty .
just before midnight on september 19 , hundreds of onlookers in boats and on land watched , spellbound , as a crane finally hoisted the airplane to the surface . a total of 800 gallons of fuel and water was pumped from the bomber before it was lifted clear of the lake . the aircraft was then dismantled , and the parts were cleaned , inventoried , and photographed .
seigler’s group had sonographers search for the aircraft in the early 1990s , but they had no luck . then in 1992 , a navy unit took on the search as a training exercise . the following year , using side - scan sonar and the accounts of witnesses , including katherine tapp and bryce lever , the divers located the airplane in the 78 - square - mile lake .

1963 : consolidated aeronautics bought type certificate , production resumed 1963 . herb lindblad formed aerofab , inc . which was under contract to produce lake amphibians for m . l . alson , now marketer of lake aircraft , at elkhart , indiana . lycoming 0 - 360 ( 180hp ) . gross weight 2400 lbs . useful 825 lbs . 40 gals fuel . 38′ wingspan . the la - 4 - 180 was produced until 1969 through s / n 446 . note the 200 increase in serial numbers between colonial c - 1 and c - 2 , and between c - 2 and la - 4 .
over the years , a large number of lake owners have brought their aircraft to muskoka for major rebuild and refits . these have included minor repairs to complete re - manufacturing with little more than a serial number plate salvageable . our shops and personnel specialize in this airplane and offer a full range of services unrivaled by any other facility . if you insist on the highest standard of workmanship with no shortcuts , we offer it !
the crew climbed out onto the wings , then inflated a life raft and set it in the water . sewall oliver eventually rescued them all in his speedboat . about seven minutes after impact , the aircraft began sinking . it finally ended up at the bottom of lake murray , at a depth of 150 feet—too deep for the u . s . army air forces to salvage it . it was written off as a loss .
during the park ' s short lived existence , the airport itself changed it ' s name to nairobi airport to correspond with the jungle habitat . the airport went as far as to paint many of it ' s aircraft in black and white zebra stripes .
growing up in columbia decades later , robert seigler heard tales of the sunken bomber and was intrigued . in the 1980s , seigler began researching the crash . along with two partners , john hodge and bill vartorella , seigler formed the lake murray b - 25 rescue project to get the aircraft out of the water . “this really is a hobby gone awry , ” seigler says today of his decades - long campaign . the aircraft’s rarity made it worth the trouble . the b - 25 mitchell , a medium bomber used in both the european and pacific theaters of world war ii , was once plentiful : north american aviation made nearly 10 , 000 . today , some 130 remain , and the one from lake murray is the third oldest . it is one of only four intact c models surviving , and the only b - 25 that still has a bottom gun turret .
at this point a committee was formed to save what was left of the original club and the new lake amphibian club was formed along with this new website , open to all .
the company is owned by team lake llc . a family owned company with marketing offices in gilford , new hampshire and sarasota , florida . at present the company is being auctioned .
one of the two aircraft was # 3521 . lac ted bates , who had graduated from his pilot course and received his wings the previous day , was onboard , along with flight lieutenant peter campbell , a flight instructor on loan from the royal air force ( raf ) .
the production c - 1 skimmer was powered by a lycoming 150 horsepower engine , could sit 3 people , stalled at 50mph and cruised about 110 mph with a 34 foot wingspan . the company built a total of 23 c - 1 skimmers through 1957 while designing a 4 seat , 180 horsepower version . this went into production in 1958 and 1959 and the company built 20 c - 2 skimmers . the primary salesperson involved during this time was john f . strayer , a former test pilot for grumman . at the end of 1959 he bought the manufacturing rights , renamed the company lake aircraft corporation , and renamed the airplane , the lake amphibian .
the film “sun down” starring jean tierney , bruce cabot and harry harey , and produced by walter wranger is filmed on the waters of crater lake . the theme was a gun smuggling ring in east africa . a large amount of lumber was put down at the wineglass for props . a seaplane was used to haul equipment , the actors , and the film crew down to the lake . the plane was moored in fumerole bay for several days . all lake tours were canceled so that the min would be available to transport the movie crew and actors around to various points on the shore . following the filming , paul herron packed much of the lumber out of the lake on his back in order to build household furniture with the salvaged wood .
2004 : delivery of first aircraft , a turbo seafury , s / n 235 , n8553z made in 2004 . rename renegade 250 to renegade 2 . $ 449 , 000 ( 2003 ) and renegade 2t $ 545 , 000 ( 2003 ) , turbo seafury $ 749 , 000 ( 2003 ) .
the belief among everyone up here was that there were german and japanese spies everywhere ,
said wetzel , who has spent months researching the secret naval training on lake michigan during world war ii .
most residents and visitors to eielson air force base know the lady of the lake as a specter of a plane . it’s a b - 29 superfortress built during wwii that’s mostly submerged in a small lake off transmitter road . all that’s visible from the surface is one wing , the lattice front of the fuselage and a portion of the vertical stabilizer . the latter feature is covered in contemporary bullet holes and bumper stickers .
morton clark of grants pass , loses the engine of his waco upf - 7 bi plane trainer while flying over crater lake . the engine dies completely . “it was 2 to 3 minutes before i could get the engine started again , and all the time , my wife and i are circling over the lake wondering how cold the water was . ” the clarks dropped 1500 feet - even with the rim before the engine was restarted .
martin had a sharp eye . after the b - 25 had taken off from the army air base outside columbia , south carolina , on a skip - bombing training mission over the lake’s island targets , its left engine had lost power . the base was a good six miles away , so henry mascall , the bombardier , urged pilot william fallon to land on the lake . the airplane ditched about two miles west of dreher shoals dam .
after the war , the lady of the lake was one of a subset of b - 29s reconfigured as wb - 29s with a joint mission of flying through storms to collect weather data and searching for evidence of soviet nuclear testing .
the carriers , the uss sable ( ix - 81 ) and uss wolverine ( ix - 64 ) , were converted great lakes paddle steamers . they had shorter flights decks , no hangar bays , and required enough lake wind for operations .
at about 10 : 45 a . m . on april 4 , 1943 , bryce lever was looking for fishing worms on the south shore of lake murray in south carolina when he saw an airplane flying low , heading toward the water .
two additional 60 passenger , $ 30 , 000 ( some sources report $ 45 , 000 ) tour boats are added to the ever growing crater lake navy . the two boats , the “ ralph peyton” and the “jim griffin” ( crater lake lodge owners ) were built during the winter by the rudy wilson boat works of portland , oregon and trucked to discovery point . the two lake launches were air lifted , minus their engines , from discovery point parking lot to wizard island by a sikorsky sky crane logging helicopter . the peyton and griffin will replace the aging launches “fisher” and “minn” . on the return trips , the helicopter brings out the ranger’s patrol boat , which was sent to olympic national park , and an o . s . u . research boat . ( the griffin is renamed the “glen happel” in 1983 following the sale of crater lake lodge . ) mrs . kathy peyton dutifully christened the two launches with two bottles of champaign moments before the airlift began .
between 1943 and 1945 , two u . s . navy aircraft carriers stationed at navy pier in chicago functioned as training platform for about 17 , 000 pilots , signal officers and other personnel . former u . s . president george h . w . bush was among the pilots who learned to take off and land on the 500 - foot long carrier decks .
mr . bates had been invited to speak at an information session in april 2008 , during which a group named the lost airmen in muskoka project ( lamp ) explained to members of 16 wing borden , ontario , and other military representatives , their efforts to locate sites and document accidents involving military aircraft that crashed in the muskoka area during the second world war .
s / n 244 , 245 – ( 1960 ) n1001l , n1002l . these two planes retained the short nose of the skimmer but had the longer wingspan of the lake . lycoming 0 - 360 ( 180 hp ) , 40 gals fuel .
several oral sources tell of a plane that buzzed low over rim village and then dove toward the lake near sinnott . the plan was supposedly in such a steep dive , the pilot was unable to pull out and the plan entered the water .
designed by david thurston , the prototype c - 1 skimmer was built in the mid 1940s and first flew in july of 1948 . at the time , thurston was employed by grumman and several aviation specialists were employed to help build the little amphibian . one of these was herbert lindblad , who at the time worked for republic . david had formed the colonial aircraft corporation with the intention of eventually producing the aircraft . the korean war interrupted the flight testing , but finally a type certificate was issued and production started in 1956 after the company moved to sanford , maine . sanford was chosen because of the airport and large empty woolen mills making for a ready - made factory at a fraction of the cost of one on long island .
upon entering the aircraft this month , divers found what waid considers conclusive proof of the plane’s identity . divers recovered a radio - operator’s table that had been written on with wax pencil and preserved below the surface of the water . the writing included a skull and crossbones drawing and names of different crew members . most importantly it included the serial number : 44 - 62214 .
1969 : s / n 410 , n7637l was the only lake built without landing gear – a straight seaplane . 0 - 360 ( 180hp ) , 40 gals fuel , 2400 lb . gross weight . 38′ wingspan . $ 23 , 562 ( 1969 )
nine u . s . army plane s of the 31st bombing squadron circle the lake at 10 : 30 a . m . “this is the largest mass flight over the crater in 6 years . ” the planes then head for medford and a week of bombing training .
only twice in the first decade since the airbus a380 entered service has the double - deck aircraft ended a year with its order backlog higher than that of the previous one . on both occasions middle eastern carrier emirates alone had spared the programme from recording a duck for the year . emirates ordered 32 a380s in mid - 2010 and just eight days before the end of 2013 signed for another 50 of the type .
the pilot of a navy crusader jet parachutes in the lake and is rescued from his small inflatable boat by ranger glen kaye . the jet , after completing a short circle of the rim , goes into a gentle downward glide and destroys itself near timber crater . the exploding jet starts a forest fire . the lake had been covered over by a heavy overcast , when , suddenly looking skyward , the members of ranger kaye’s boat tour group witnessed the parachuting pilot burst through the clouds . being a navy plane , the pilot was well equipped for water landings . the pilot’s wing buddy , buzzed the lake , shortly afterward , making sure that the rescue had been successful . the two crusaders had taken off minutes before from kingsley field in klamath falls , when one of the jet’s fuel lines shook lose , spilling fuel and causing the flame out .
plane wreckage and three skeletal remains are discovered by a hiker near huckleberry campground , one mile west of crater lake national park . the plane had disappeared on february 26 , 1975 , during a snow storm , with a klamath falls high school teacher and two of his students on board . august 7
burt simmons , of 3209 monmoth , pleasonton , california , and former crew member , tells of the landing of sea plane s on crater lake as they practiced hiding from the japanese attack . the sea planes practiced landing on several cascade mountain lakes . the story was kept very quiet for security purposes .
unfortunately , the club started to change dramatically . most notably was the website , where most of the information is now classified for members only , opening the membership up to all amphibian aircraft ( seabees , amphibious floatplanes , etc . ) and eliminating the printed and mailed newsletters . all this was done without consent of the members , many of whom do not frequent the forum often , if at all , leaving them at a loss for any club information .
it was interesting to read that my current aircraft s / n 311 ( photo above ) gets a mention as the prototype buccaneer .
that was good to see ; i had understood that it was a buccaneer prototype , but was never sure . of all the 20 + lakes i have flown , it is one of the best and i still get a great thrill every time i fly it .

a sail plane originating from seattle , attempting to set a world’s distance record , narrowly escapes crashing into crater lake , and instead sets down 1 / 4 mile from the rim , near cloud cap . the plane was air - lifted out by helicopter to fort klamath several days later . the pilot had to be rescued by rangers on snowmobiles . the pilot’s wife had been following the sailplane in a chase car out on highway 97 and contacted park officials after learning of her husband’s location by radio . up drafts from mt . rainier had given the sailplane an exceptionally high starting elevation , but a down draft from crater lake brought the plane down .
meanwhile , new financing was found and in 1963 m . l . alson , of elkhart , indiana took over the sales of lake amphibians . alson was responsible for getting brantley helicopters off the ground ( pun intended ) . he was under contract to purchase each lake built by aerofab , inc . , a new company formed by lindblad at sanford , maine . this arrangement was to last for many years . it was not an easy job selling lakes . they were a well - built , nice flying , docile amphibian , but a wee bit on the slow side , and a wee bit lacking in useful load and all along , needed more horsepower .
s / n 121 , n261b , lake prototype . converted from c - 2 . 4 - place amphibian configured as above . wingspan increased to 38′ , nose lengthened to enclose nose gear when retracted . lycoming 0 - 360 a1a ( 180hp ) . gross weight increased to 2400 lbs . 40 gals fuel . 38′ wingspan , length 24′ 11″
jungle habitat was a warner brothers - owned theme park which operated from the summer of 1972 to october of 1976 . the 1000 acre theme park was ( and is ) located off airport road in west milford . the main entrance is situated adjacent to greenwood lake airport . by november 1972 , the park had 500 , 000 paid visitors .
j . c . major , 1218 chateau drive , san jose , california , claims a grumman torpedo bomber tbm crashed into the lake when the plane ’s engine quite while over the water . the navy plane made a water landing and the pilot got out in a raft . since the park was closed during this period , rescue was difficult . december 3
subsequently , seigler’s team spent more than a decade trying to raise money to attempt a salvage . finally , in 2005 , they hired gary larkins , with 68 salvages perhaps the world’s most successful aircraft retriever ( see “gary and the pirates , ” feb . / mar . 1997 ) . starting september 10 , larkins began directing a salvage attempt . a barge was positioned above the airplane , and eight divers in two - man teams dove into the lake several times daily to inspect , clear silt , and secure the airplane . they worked as long as 18 hours at a stretch . at times , visibility was limited to inches . larkins instructed the divers where and how to attach straps around the wings and spreader bars over the wings to distribute the weight for safe lifting . when all those were in place , the barge slowly raised the airplane and towed it to shore , just below the surface .
the legal tussle continues between manufacturer archedyne and armand rivard , despite a court judgement in june ordering rivard to pay $ 750 , 000 in damages and repay the $ 500 , 000 deposit which archedyne paid for its collapsed acquisition of lake . a dispute over the sale of the company last year resulted in archedyne filing court action against rivard on grounds of conspiracy to defraud (
the original club was formed in 1988 and has been administered until 2015 by two husband and wife teams , bill and louise goddard , and then marc and jill rodstein , who recently retired after 15 wonderful years of running a great club with many new ideas . when they retired they turned over the management of the club to another lake owner and club member of many years .
an aerospatiale as 350 helicopter from seattle , ( heading for las vegas ) crashes and sinks in 1 , 500 feet of water between wizard island and the lodge . several dozen park visitors watched while the helicopter skimmed over the smooth surface of the lake and then suddenly plunged into the deep water . speculation is that the pilot , george w . causey , 52 , of enumclaw , wa , became confused by the near perfect reflection as he flew toward the lake reflection thinking it was the sky . there was no indication of engine problems . killed , along with the pilot . was passenger edward o . tulleners of west linn , on his 45th birthday . the helicopter was a seven passenger eurocopter , built by the world’s largest manufacturer of civil helicopters . little was recovered except for some shreds of the rotors and a seat cushion . in june , 1996 , park superintendent al hendricks was quoted as saying , “the technology is there to proceed with recover . what we are struggling with is whether it’s worth it . both families decided the bottom of crater lake would be a pretty good place ( for the crash victims ) to spend eternity . ”
among the most important features of our new lake amphibian club , will be the yearly election of 6 officers for the purpose of administering the club’s operation to prevent the above problem from happening again . we are in the process of registering the club with the irs as a not - for - profit organization , complete with bylaws in hope that the club will continue to exist for many years to come .
in 1976 , frank lembo enterprises ( owners of grenwood lake airport in west milford , new jersey ) bought her for $ 45 , 000 for use as a restaurant & lounge project . the plane was serviced for her final flight and made the journey in 1977 , landing on gla ' s short , 2700 - foot runway . she was placed against the airport ' s main building and anchored in place .
in 1970 alson introduced the 200 - horsepower , lake “buccaneer” about the same time he moved the company to the houston , texas area . sales improved considerably because of the extra horsepower , gross weight , and performance , plus year - round flying capabilities . aftermarket turbochargers became available , also , along with much lighter avionics . “al” alson retired in 1979 after selling the company to armand rivard of laconia , new hampshire .

two floating styrofoam docks are airlifted by helicopter from discovery point to cleetwood . the foam floats ended up bouncing so badly , the docks are unsafe to use . compounding the problem was the ripping off of huge hunks of styrofoam every time the docks struck a rock . ( styrofoam was seen floating in the lake for years . ) one dock was destroyed in a storm and other one served for a time as an unstable fueling dock .
a new , prefab boat house is flown by helicopter to wizard island , in 15 prebuilt sections , replacing the 1962 boathouse burned three weeks earlier . the boathouse was increased in size without first obtaining permission from the national park service . the helicopter also airlifted out an old lake launch , the “min” , named after minnie price , wife of the lodge owner ( 1921 - 1954 ) . the min was trucked to klamath falls and given to a local troop of sea scouts .
dan jackman ( 899 - 8719 of jacksonville ) reports that he while was stationed in klamath falls when a grumman torpedo plane tbf - vc 88 - 9 = 89 , was reported crashing into the lake . two planes were flying in formation near mt . scott , when one partner turned away and when he looked back , the other pilot was gone . the government kept the crash a secret because they did not want it to get out to the enemy . the pilot did not actually see the plane go into the lake . jackman reported that 2 or 3 planes crashed each week near the army air base in klamath falls . another plane story says that a snj trainer went down late fall of 1944 , while heading north and was never found . the pilot and turret gunner were lost . another time a plane’s engine quite over the park and the plane was guided southeast until it crashed into either agency or klamath lakes . ( dick mccullock , 826 - 7237 and tony gallo 779 - 4611 )
for years lake pilots have said that the amphibian should have 250 horsepower . rivard , lindblad , paul furnee and others designed and introduced the “renegade” in 1984 , with substantial changes . namely , 4 or 6 places , an extended hull and a totally new tail design . performance increased considerably along with the load carrying ability , not to mention its ability to land and take off on much rougher water . a few years later the factory followed with a turbocharged 270 horsepower version which added high altitude use to its attributes .
an aerospatiale super puma helicopter lowers a one - man submarine to the boat dock on wizard island . nps fish biologist , mark buktenica was quoted as saying , “ this is a fantastic opportunity . . . a once - in - a - lifetime chance . ” deep rover , weighing 7 , 200 pounds will spend the next three weeks exploring the depths of crater lake looking geothermal vents , among other things . the three week summer research project will cost $ 225 , 000 . the sub has a top speed of 1 . 5 knots . november 11
1968 - 81 : s / n 311 , n1149l ( prototype ) converted to io - 360 a1b ( 200hp ) in 1968 . production began 1969 with s / n 431 although a few 180hp were built after . the lake buccaneer ( la - 4 - 200 ) was produced through 1981 to s / n 1073 . gross weight increase to 2600 lbs . useful 1135 lbs . 40 gals fuel plus 14 gals added to floats upped gross to 2690 . 38′ wingspan . $ 32 , 950 ( 1970 ) $ 57 , 950 ( 1979 ) $ 82 , 920 ( 1981 )
rivard had been a very successful dealer since 1973 . he closed the houston office and moved the operation to laconia and kissimmee , florida which was beginning to boom , due to the disney complex . sales became a little sluggish in the early 1980s and armand responded with a few changes to the buccaneer . namely , the introduction of the lake ep which included many improvements . the ep had an enclosed rear cowling with an extended propeller shaft and a balanced engine . a cargo door , wing fillets , plus fuel in the floats were now standard equipment , all of which improved performance .
over the years the cost of a new skimmer or lake went from about $ 16 , 000 to over $ 500 , 000 for many reasons . sales of renegades have been very sparse in the last few years , the last one built under contract , in 2006 . armand sold the company in 2003 , only to regain it a year or two later , minus a rather large asset — the factory and hangar at sanford . many parts are still being supplied . to date there have been about 137 renegades produced , with a total of approximately 1050 skimmers and lakes built since 1956 .
two 17 year old teenage boys from michigan are stranded on a cliff , 300 feet below garfield peak while attempting to climb down to the lake . attempts to rescue the boys from above fail because of the danger of knocking loose dangerous rocks . immediate rescue by helicopter was impossible because of the lack of light , but two sleeping bags are tossed to the two stranded hikers in order to make their night more comfortable on their seven foot long ledge . the two are airlifted off the next morning . the boys refuse to pay the rescue bill of several thousand dollars , but try to cash in on their experience when the wire services send their story out national wide . summer
braving the dangers of the high altitude and precipitous cliffs , the first air plane in history lands on the windblown waters of crater lake . the ship , a yellow winged amphibian with crimson fuselage , was piloted by clayton scott of seattle , and mechanic george dahlberg . the plan approached from over the annie spring checking station , circled gracefully around wizard island , and landed easily near the shore of the island , being tossed about by strong winds and waves . soon after it landed , the ship taxied toward the east shore and slowly raised from the water . the plane circled low over the information building while pilot scott tossed out pictures of the plane and of the passengers . the plane barely missed the tree tops .

according to katsalidis , a foreword by australian institute of architects ( aia ) gold medallist , peter wilson and a written contribution from renowned australian architect and fellow aia gold medallist graeme gunn am , also provided a long overdue opportunity to consider fka’s remarkable past , present , and future .
at fender katsalidis architects , they listen , think , investigate and collaborate . they seek the simple , compelling solution . their process through feasibility , design and documentation , enhanced by 3 - d ‘information rich’ virtual building environments , is acclaimed by their clients and the international design community . the practice is renowned for producing buildings which are cutting edge in design with sound functional planning . their approach has generated a high practice profile and gained many design awards . the approach , pioneered by fender katsalidis , is changing the face of construction practices . increasingly , the specific design of large components of a building can be undertaken by major subcontractors using 3d computer - based design harnessed to manufacturing processes , which in turn provides construction streamlining .
katsalidis is lower key . he appears for a photoshoot at the end of the hour - long discussion , answers a few questions quietly and disappears . but katsalidis has a business acumen and a pragmatic edge that has pushed the duo well beyond the realm of standard architecture practice .

it has just moved into a new office , taking a 1000sq m - odd floor in the 2 riverside quay building it designed for mirvac on melbourne ' s southbank ; it has designed merdeka pnb118 , a 630 - metre mixed - use tower in the malaysian capital kuala lumpur that will be the world ' s fifth - tallest building when completed in 2020 ; and it has just published fender katsalidis : working architecture , detailing its work over two decades .
“we feel incredibly honoured to have all those distinguished individuals be part of our first book and we just can’t thank them enough for their contributions and conclusions on how our practice has influenced australia’s built environments , ” says katsalidis .
“the success of the practice has been driven by the firm’s ability to move with the commercial realities of our time and by its innovative and collaborative approach to architecture through working closely with forward - thinking developers across a range of sectors , ” says katsalidis .
“we wanted to document some of the developments we have created in the last 25 years , therefore , we selected what we felt would be more architecturally appealing to our readers , ” says 66 - year - old nondas katsalidis in an interview with neos kosmos .
the pragmatic firm that has won much of its work
because other architects have failed to find solutions that deliver financial returns and win planning approvals for what are usually intractable sites
– as rmit architecture professor leon van schaik writes in a new book about fka – is going through a time of change .
good architects will go beyond the fashion parade and start thinking about the urban design issues , the community issues and bring to their project a beautiful building that satisfies the lust of the local developer but also is very responsible in the way it sits within the fabric that it ' s located in ,
he says .
it ' s ironic that the private office of the man who designed the tower looks out on to its tenth - floor plant room . but fender says the consolidation of staff onto one clear floorplate is a key part of the succession planning – a concern for any professional services firm – and will build up the sense of the practice as a team .
s p setia also has another project in melbourne , the a $ 252 million parque melbourne at st kilda road . it will offer 332 units of one - , two - and three - bedroom apartments , with an additional two open - plan penthouses , that will sit on a land area measuring 9 , 031 sq m . the parque melbourne development is also designed by fk architects .
he doesn ' t like to be referred to as ' the developer ' ,
fender says .
he ' s first and foremost an architect . that ' s the point . he ' s not a developer that happens to be an architect that does a good job . he is an architect that has found ways to bring levels of excellence to the work that he and we do .
the kuala lumpur project alongside stadium negara , site of the declaration of malaysia ' s independence in 1957 , shows how a building can help renew an entire precinct , fender says . while the building brings many new people to the area , it can also work better and be a nicer place to be as a result of improvements that accompany it , such as road upgrades and new underground railway , he says .
“my parents are both greek and i was born there so i try and visit every four to five years but if you ask me , i will tell you it’s not often enough . “my father was born in epeiros and my mother comes from corinth . after the war they both moved to athens and i was born there . my family migrated to australia in 1956 when i was five years old , therefore i do speak some greek but i wish i spoke the language better . truth is , i don’t speak it very often in australia , ” says katsalidis who doesn’t believe there is a secret to fka’s success other than working hard and producing original work .
“we started in the mid - 1990s and since then we have worked very hard and we have collected many awards and [ much ] recognition along the way for our design and innovative approach in building environments , but ultimately , it’s the people that have the final say as to whether they like what we do or not . “from our end , we have tried to stay true to our vision in creating interesting architectural work with a design that we feel fits the location and the climate of each of the projects and we are just excited that people can finally look through a book , study our products and come to their own conclusions , ” says katsalidis who despite an intense and certainly heavy schedule , still finds the time to visit his birthplace , greece .
“sometimes i feel that we live in a strange country , but truth is , we are very lucky to be in australia . in my opinion , overall , we have had more ups than downs and the australian economy has been going up since the last recession . given how popular this country is due to its location and because of asia , i feel property development and construction is already growing too fast for my liking , especially in melbourne , but what we try and always do at fka is take one step at a time , stay focused to what lays ahead of us and concentrate on delivering a great product before moving to our next venture . “in our firm we like diversity , so we make sure every product we deliver , irrespective of size and location , is unique in its design and structure . “we never rest and we ensure we never repeat ourselves , ” concludes katsalidis .

newacton east is the first completed stage of the newacton precinct in canberra . one of three new buildings proposed to be arrayed around a significant heritage building in the centre of the site , the building is a harbinger of the place - making that will be newacton : a fecund melange of living , work , recreation and creative activity : a contrast with the barrenness of much of canberra . the building is an urban marker announcing the newacton precinct . it is a sculptural addition to the skyline silhouette ; it encourages street activity through its retail , cafe and access functions permeating the ground floor . it enlivens that environment . it connects the bounding streets to the centre of the heritage precinct . commissioned art works create a seamless connection and itinerary from the new building through landscaped courts into the heritage buildings , interlacing content and creative place - making within the precinct . the building contains residential , commercial and retail uses . the residential component is thirty - two apartments , ranging in size from one bedroom through to three bedroom , and including two highly customised apartments for the building owners . the apartments are located in the top three storeys of this eight storey building , over four commercial levels and a retail / entry ground floor . the entry for the apartments is the heritage link . the link connects marcus clarke street on the east with the courtyards of the heritage building on the west . it is a space which interlaces welcome , activity and art . a seamless sweep of folded ceiling , wall and floor reveals a rusted steel wall leading
the visitor from the new in the east to the old in the west . that passage of time as well as distance is melded with warren langley’s sculptural piece interpreting the juxtaposition of built environment and landscape in canberra . graphic symbolism replacing text in the lobbies leading to apartments creates a celebration of the potentially banal identification of services risers . while the apartments represent a range of sizes and plan arrangements , they have a common thread : the dissolving of the cellular nature typical of this residential type . by integrating with visual and physical linkages the differing rooms within apartments , increased perceptual size and light infiltration is achieved . strong joinery elements in the single bed apartments articulate the functional spaces while providing spatial integration and functionality . glazed bathrooms inserted within the bedrooms of larger apartments create spaciousness . in the north - west corner of the building , with views from civic to the north to lake burley griffin , is a custom - designed apartment . a melding of simple spatial articulation with a richness of incorporated robust materials , works of art and sheer personality , the design of this apartment is a clear manifesto for a world - aware , multicultural , perceptive culture that exists in canberra . in its use of primary structure as final finish , its exploration of spatial possibilities , and its simple robust expression allied with a richness of design responses , the building represents a remarkable balance of design outcome within the context of the financial realities of building development .

richmond penthouse on street named for jack dyer roars to record price of about $ 4 . 8m
a luxury golden gate bridge - inspired hotel has been announced for the museum . it’s expected to cost $ 300 million .
expansive new plans for mona ( hobart’s museum of old and new art ) have been revealed by the museum’s multi - millionaire founder , david walsh .
hotel mona , which will be known as homo , was the centrepiece of an announcement walsh made to a tasmanian tourism industry event yesterday . the hotel will offer five - star accommodation across 172 rooms , and uses the golden gate bridge as inspiration for both the colour and unique design of the hotel . it will be on the same site as mona .
the top seven floors will be hung from a suspension bridge , and there will be a 1075 - seat theatre at its base . it will be designed so that vibrations from performances won’t affect the other levels of the hotel .
due to the scale of the proposed developments at the berriedale peninsula location , walsh has approached the state government for funding to move the museum’s on - site summer festival , mona foma , to launceston .
it will also feature “special experience” rooms , one - off suites designed by internationally renowned artists and a luxury spa treatment centre . walsh also has ambitions to plumb the entire hotel with converted waste water .
a new children’s sculpture designed by artist tom otterness will feature on the outside lawn , as will a giant spun trampoline by japanese¬ - canadian textile artist toshiko horiuchi macadam . there will also be an amphitheatre and a new stage for hosting live music .
walsh has been a long time collector of rare books , scrolls and manuscripts and a circular , three - storey library is also being constructed to house his collection for display to the public .
interstate travellers make up 74 per cent of mona’s visitors annually , alongside providing for these visitors , the hotel will have a special focus on both local and international business and conference markets ; new conference , function and retail spaces are being built .
the project is expected to take up to three years to be completed and comes with a more than $ 300 million price tag .
plans have yet to be submitted to glen orchy council , and the guardian reports walsh as saying he won’t push ahead if the local community objects to the plans .
walsh also announced other yet - to - be - approved plans , including monaco , a high - rollers - only casino , and a new tunnel and tower at mona . other planned accommodation projects include redevelopments at a marion bay homestead , where rooms can be rented for more than $ 2000 a night . at the other end of the spectrum is hobo ( hobart odour ) a caravan park at mona walsh says is being hampered by council regulations .
expansions of the existing museum have already begun . four installations by revered american light artist james turrell will be housed in the pharos tower alongside work by richard wilson , jean tinguely , charles ross and randy polumbo . these works have been scheduled to open to the public on december 22 .

“it has been a smooth ride . sales have been very good . we are definitely here to stay and look forward to expanding into the australian market , ” added voon , citing sydney as the next possible location for s p setia’s third australian development .

the new building , which will be known as homo ( hotel at mona ) , will also house a spa treatment centre , three - level public library , restaurant and bar , auditorium , conference centre , function and retail spaces and an outdoor stage .
david walsh , founder of mona , indicated that , like the museum , some of the spaces would be subterranean . “this time , some may think it’s gotten a little out of hand – the excavation alone is more than four times the size of that for the museum - but we seem to have some support , the plans have turned out pretty well and we can’t rest on our laurels for ever . ”
when mona announced plans to build $ 200 million worth of projects including a hotel , a casino and an extension to the gallery in 2015 , walsh said the design of the hotel would make a bold statement and “shout where mona whispered . ” the mona casino , nicknamed monaco , will be designed by mexican architect javier senosiain . in a statement , mona said the casino would be a members - only poker - machine - free facility for non - tasmanians , “designed as an ‘anti - casino’” that would “act as an outlet for art and design . ”
designs for the mona hotel are yet to be submitted to the local authority , the glenorchy city council .
mona’s co - ceo mark wilsdon said , “we want to do all we can to continue to help drive the growth in interstate tourism we’ve experienced since mona opened in 2011 . ”

the book traces the rich history of the practice through 31 key projects selected from fka’s portfolio of works and it provides a rare glimpse into the creative and innovative energy that has come to define fka as a highly awarded , multi - disciplinary international design firm whose work now influences built environment thinking across the globe .
founded on the philosophy of innovation through collaboration , fka has evolved from a melbourne - centric architectural practice to one of australia’s most ground - breaking .
constructed by fka , eureka tower’s 89th floor was certainly a fitting location for guests to reflect on the firm’s illustrious history , while catching a glimpse of its future .
the distinguished architectural author , critic and innovation professor of architecture at rmit , leon van schaik oa , gave a speech about the discoveries made in understanding the practice , which he wrote about in his revealing narrative in the book .
museum of old and new art ( mona ) founder david walsh , whose working relationship with the practice spans almost two decades , also made a rare speaking appearance .
maitiú ward , publisher of fka’s book at uro publications also addressed the audience .
with established offices also in sydney and brisbane , and an affiliate office in london , fka employs around 100 people in australia and 60 in the uk , and is growing its international influence by entering new markets including indonesia and malaysia .
a series of key high - controlled profile projects currently underway point to the journey that is to come as fka continues to shape melbourne’s city and skyline . australia 108 is under construction , as well as two 80 - storey residential buildings on queen street in melbourne’s cbd ( in collaboration with cox architecture ) .
while overseas a landmark tower by fka in kuala lumpur is set to become the world’s fifth tallest building , landmarking the city’s important stadium merdeka precinct .
fka has shaped and enhanced the quality of melbourne’s architecture and the same is often said of fka’s designs in other places such as tasmania , with the practice’s design for mona firmly placing hobart on the world stage as a global cultural destination .
