Auto Credit Based on ThunderFoxx's Firebird Swan Mk.1a
The Swan Mk.2 is a seaborne variant of the Swan, while the Mk.2 sports fancy colours and a brand new, far more powerful engine and larger surfaces, these are all to support the drag and extra weight of it's pontoons. Despite this extra weight, the Swan Mk.2 performs exeedingly well, and almost mirrors the capabilities of it's wheel-bearing brother, the Mk.1e.
This aircraft and many more, brought to you by Firebird Aviation Company.
Notes for flight:
Water takeoff speed: 150 Km/h (94 Mph)
