The Spruce Goose is an aviation icon that started off as a sensible but incredibly ambitious wartime aircraft project, driven by one man’s passion. But the only reason it ever got to fly is because that passion became an obsession.

Today, we'll look at how Howard Hughes developed and maintained the H-4 Hercules over a period of decades, the history of seaplanes and flying boats, and why the Spruce Goose will be forever be remembered as a truly classic aircraft.
