Re-Introducing

THE G-21 GRUMMAN GOOSE

Wild Goose Aviation is at the forefront of merging the timeless design of the revered Grumman Goose with modern manufacturing techniques and procedures. This innovative combination aims to introduce the world's only commercially viable twin-engine turboprop amphibious seaplane, known as the Super Goose. Positioned strategically, Wild Goose Aviation is poised to integrate the reliable production practices of the automotive sector with the regulatory frameworks of the aviation industry. This synergy promises to exceed all expectations in terms of time-to-market efficiency and overall cost-effectiveness.

HISTORY

The Grumman G-21 Goose stands as a remarkable amphibious flying boat crafted by Grumman primarily to cater to the needs of businessmen in the Long Island region, offering seating for up to eight passengers. Notably, the Goose marked several significant milestones for Grumman: it was their inaugural monoplane to take flight, their first twin-engined aircraft, and their debut aircraft to be utilized in commercial airline operations. As World War II erupted, the Goose seamlessly transitioned into a valuable asset for the US military, including the United States Coast Guard, and found service in numerous other air forces globally. Throughout the conflict, its versatility saw it fulfill an expanding array of roles, from transport to combat and training duties.
