Welcome!

In this challenge, you'll have to build an efficient seaplane, capable of taking off and landing from water.
Seaplanes are the best type of plane btw

Rules:

  1. Your seaplane must be able to take off and land in water.

  2. Can be fictional or replica, although for replicas, try to make them as realistic as possible.

  3. No seaplane is good without a cockpit, please try your best at making an internal cockpit, even if it doesn't look good.

  4. Must be under 540 parts.

  5. Helicopters that can land in water are accepted.

  6. Must be a successor

    @Star737 it just needs to be able to land in water, propulsion system can be whatever you want

    I have a question
    How many entries can I make?
    Because I have plans for two planes, one more basic and detailed, and another experimental to test new concepts.
