Default A technical question

When an airplane is used to be taken through a road, it is necessary to have certain caution with the different unevenness of the ground. In most cases, if the plane is tail dragger, and it meets a slope of the ground, it hits the ground damaging the propeller. When using a tricycle landing gear airplane, this effect is less damaging to the aircraft. In the case of an amphibious airplane, as is the case of the MBR, is it possible to go from water to dry land without causing a collision between these two surfaces?

My mistake, I was thinking of Tupolev. I got confused because so many of his pre-war designs are designated as ANT-## rather than Tu-##.

No problem. This confuses many even in the Russian speaking community.
ANT, AN, Antey (An-22).
I agree with your comment on Tupolev's designs in general.
