## Notes

- The Aron M80 is a Korean single-turboprop WIG craft sold through yacht dealers as the 'Aron Flying Ship'.
- The file is a 12.68 × 14.51 × 3.87 m box from the dealer's spec list. Aron's own spec sheet was not found, so the entry is marked secondary.
- The listing gives the same 47.6 ft figure for beam and wingspan; length is also quoted as 42 ft.
- True size, no printing tolerance added. Only published numbers are used; anything not published is said so.
- Secondary source: the numbers come from a retailer or magazine copy of the maker's specification.
