Amphibious 208 Caravan
Here’s my take on the amphibious Cessna 208 Caravan!
Built for both water and land operations, this version is equipped with floats and retractable landing gear (it's retracted by default when you spawn).
It features a custom livery, a simple cabin interior, and overall smooth handling on both surfaces.
The cockpit is still a work-in-progress — it’s flyable but not fully detailed yet.
Main Features:
-Amphibious floats with retractable gear
-Custom paint scheme
-Lightly detailed passenger area
-Stable water/land performance
About the real aircraft:
The Cessna 208 Caravan is known for its reliability, ruggedness, and ability to operate from short or rough strips. Adding floats turns it into a true amphibious workhorse, capable of reaching remote lakes, islands, and rivers where no runway exists.
Still tweaking and improving it — feedback is always welcome!
Big thanks to Windshifter1 for the providing all the fantastic screenshots!

@frogbot4000 is it flipping on its side or back? I had complaints about this before but it should be virtually impossible to flip now, if you can provide a video or something that would help a ton with understanding why this is happening
What kind of ocean mod was used for the screenshots? Anytime I try and float in a modded ocean, my plane flips
Stunning ;)
IT FLOATS LIKE THE TITLE SAYS
Eagerly awaiting the next version.
so beautiful, It deserve a Spotlight
And could you make a version without floats
@tingly06822 it feels like it doesn’t pull up enough with the flaps extended and at landing speed… could u possibly fix the elevator/ flap lift about to a bit more
@AchbyzThePlaneBuilder you can use the ‘Buoyancy’ slider on mobile.
Amazing! Can’t wait to see the finished product!
Nice 4K looking thumbnail!
How you make planes float??
pertty nice picture and plane you
