The odd ones out...
The Grumman G-21 Goose, an amphibious flying boat, was designed by Grumman to serve as an eight-seat "commuter" aircraft for businessmen in the Long Island area. The Goose was Grumman's first monoplane to fly, its first twin-engined aircraft, and its first aircraft to enter commercial airline service. The prototype took its first flight on May 29, 1937. The fuselage, which also served as a hull, was versatile and provided generous interior space that allowed fitting for either a transport or luxury airliner role.
The Grumman Goose was powered by two 450 horsepower Pratt & Whitney R-985 Wasp Junior nine-cylinder, air-cooled, radial engines mounted on the leading edges of the wings. It had a maximum speed of 175 knots at 5,000 feet and a cruise speed of 166 knots at 5,000 feet. The travel range was 560 nautical miles. It could fly up to 21,300 feet and could climb at a rate of 1,100 feet per minute.
During World War II, the Goose became an effective transport for the US military (including the United States Coast Guard), as well as serving with many other air forces. It took on an increasing number of combat and training roles. After WWII ended, most of the Grumman Gooses were removed from military service and began making a big splash in the passenger transport category. They became very popular with small airlines carrying passengers from coast to island, and vice-versa, such as in the Caribbean, California, and Alaska
