Auto Credit Based on RedBeard66's Super Stol
This is the Sea going version of my beloved Super STOL V2 bush plane (which was based on the real plane of the same name built buy the "Just Aircraft" company). This version is a little slower due to drag, but its still a nice relaxing flyer that can get in and out of some tricky spots due to its light weight and massive flaps.
WATER TAKEOFF: make sure the landing gear is retracted, VTOL FLAPS all the way down, Full elevators and ONLY 25% THROTTLE! @50mph she will jump out of ... the water.
I hope you enjoy!

It can be tough to balance between looks and usability it was a bear on this one and it's still not as easy as I'd like. But if you get those floats sticking out far enough in front of the plane it will be fine. @BlueCobraplanes
You should float planes are fun! @BlueCobraplanes
@RedBeard66 Cool, You should make more amphibious aircraft, I like your style! ;)
@GeneralColeOfTheAf this plane was loosely based on the "Just Aircraft" Super STOL bush plane. I've actually never seen a float version of the super stol but I love float planes and it wasn't much of a stretch to add them.
This reminds me of my coast guard version.. -_- Lol its way better tho, but was that an inspiration? cause if so that is SO awesome!!!
