@MrMecha Wow, thanks again. This one was one of my really early projects. No concept, no inspiration, just to get something with wings and engines on the water that could take off and land again safely. lol

@FennVectorCWA She didn't handle well for you? I had a LOT of fun after building her and just cruising around, landing on the water, taking off again, or just chillin' on the waves. lol I need to do another float plane soon, this one's quite dated and I have lots and lots of replicas I have in mind! :D Oh yeah, then there's that bet with my son that I can't make a floatplane that actually works with retractable floats. XD Back to the above floatplane though, if you ride the elevator on takeoff and kinda skid in on the back of the floats all should be well. I guess it does sound complicated but it just seemed to work. I repeatedly tested a HUGE torpedo on that thing with a Boom 50 protruding from the nose and nailed Tiny several times. XD

After going in water it turns into torpedo tadaaaa!

@dilisvarskvlavi - this might help. I created this some time ago to get people started. https://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/comments/3acdsn/modding_notes/?

@WalrusAircraft As mentioned before I am XML illiterate. I DL'd Notepad++ but I'm still looking for the XML files on my PC. I don't know if I'll be able to work the kind of magic you do but I'll do my best! Thanks for the commendation on this bird, it's fun to fly and play around with. I'll probably replace the guns with "borrowed" assemblies from downloaded birds with XML mods so that they will have a better "appearance only" look! ^_^

It is a nice design that flys well. If you hack the engine power in the XML I bet you can use those torpedos with no problem.
