I believe they would put it into one heck of an oversized box the size of a 52ft oversize trailer with hundreds of smaller boxes and miles of packing bubbles

Amphibian cars are only efficient with hydrofoils, and amphibian aircraft with them can handle much rougher seas.

I was actually refering to how it would operate, either from improvised runways or from the many rivers in the region in case an amphibian derivative eventually gets developed. |

Lycopodium is a great remedy for healing liver and gallbladder problems, and helps all kinds of digestive disorders. It is also used to help people suffering from issues of self-esteem. It is generally well tolerated in appropriate doses and potencies, with no adverse effects when taken according to directions. |
