@Notapier lololol

Got propellers on 15.2 feet exactly

Ditching that project I might actually do that mars instead@F104Deathtrap

@Notapier Nudging by the photo, you're doing the turbo?

There are two variants the cl-415 with turbo props and the cl214 with radial engines@F104Deathtrap

@MrSilverWolf Ha! Super scooper.

@Jengstrom that's awesome!

@F104Deathtrap yeah they go by both Canadiar CL415 or Bombardier 415 or just simply super scooper

I just saw a CL-415 last week actually (I saw that modified Dc-10 tanker also)

People don't make flying boats much for two reasons. 1) Because they can't get them to stop nosing down [the key is making the tail and elevators HUGE, AND possibly angling them down a couple degrees to fight the pull of the engines] 2) Because it's really hard to make the boat hull bottom.

Thats a Martin Mars if i see it right.

Awesome.

@Notapier Bottom one is a pretty cool plane too. Canadiar Bombardier? I'm not super knowledgeable about Canadian aircraft, but I do know they build a mean water bomber.

I managed to get pictures of the Martin Mars dropping it's water load in the tarmac at Oshkosh last year

And he's on android

Way too big for my skills

I'm gonna try the bottoms one@F104Deathtrap

To my surprise noone made this except one guy@F104Deathtrap

@Notapier She's a real beauty, not flashy, but nice clean lines. You gonna build one?

@F104Deathtrap
yea

I've seen Lancaster's and C-130's fly over my house sometimes but no I saw a video of the thing.

Martin JRM Mars, right?

had like twenty tabs open trying to get this to work

sorry cant get the pic to load@Fishbowl1121
