The Navy's XF2Y1 Sea Dart .let fighter, which usually takes off from San Diego bay on two skis, balances like a human skier on one foot as it takes off using only one ski during a test on the bay. This plane has been fitted with a single ski as part of the Convair aircraft company's testing program. The Sea Darts, first set seaplanes ever built, have exceeded the speed of sound. July 28, 1955.
