This giant jet powered flying boat would have claimed the title as the fastest transatlantic seaplane ever,but,due to many structural reasons,it remains as a blueprint. Once in the air,pull the trim halfway down to maintain good pitch. VTOL up for air-brakes.Credit to PlanesOfOld for the non-floppy wings. Please give me some feedback,I will need it for updates and new seaplanes which will be coming in the future.
