8.6 years ago
Auto Credit Based on ChunderDownUndeR's Angler MK-III Seaplane
--All credit for original design goes to "ChunderDownUndeR"--
I revised:
Engines: Added Turbo props and converted to push+pull configuration
Wings: Modified Fuselages
Control surfaces: Added pitch surface to main wings and edited roll surface size
Weight: Tinkered with fuel/ weight distribution to account for extra engines
Paint: Repainted Red and White
I also added landing gear to enable ground landings/take-offs.
Take-off at150-160 mph at 80% pitch. Don't forget to retract landing gear before water take-off and landing! As always, criticism is welcome and appreciated.

You want a behemoth try to fly my 57z heavy bomber or Pacific Voyager @LatteFun
Great job
@JacobHardy64
Yeah its nice to see actual attempts at tweaking successors.
This thing looks fantastic
@JacobHardy64 Thanks so much! The original model by ChunderDownUndeR was just stellar and was what inspired me to make my own original sea-plane. So after that I thought I'd give this rework a shot. I can't explain why but I'm drawn to flying nothing but the biggest planes in this game. Even the fastest jets & trick planes don't give me the same thrill as lifting off a behemoth like this or even weaving through the bigger Shark Teeth with them. Plus Sea-Planes are just super cool in my opinion.
see THIS is a good modification of a plane. THIS is a good successor. Great job being respectful and following the rules, You get an upvite :)
