I know it's not the first, but it's my absolute favorite flying boat so I had to give it a go.
VTOL up to raise wingtip floats. AG 1, 2, and 3 for bombs.
LOTS of XML trickery on this one.

Very old...
@Notapier 1.2 actualy.
1.3-4 ish
Maybe right after fuselage parts were introduced
@jamesPLANESii
When was this built? It looks pretty old...
I took off the bombs and made a raaf black cat version
How did you get it to fly with the wings clipping through the fuselage? My Hawker Hurricane barely flies at all with wings clipped into a fuselage.
Dang it, now i want to go play war thunder.
I like it and it looks just like the real thing
i also play war thunder and i iam on tier 3 and i have german planes
@mustafanaveed I do, occasionally! I'm not very good at it though, I refuse to pay any money to Gaijin so I'm still grinding my way through Tier III, and only on the Brit planes so far.
this makes me think that you play war thunder
Ok, i'm gonna be the first to point out a few mistakes, btw, you did an amazing job on this.
1. The fuselage is too tall.
2. The bottom isn't the same shape as it is irl.
3. The back is a bit too small.
Those are all the mistakes I could see on the craft, oh wait no.
4. Can't carry 16x100 lb bombs.
5. The bombs aren't being carried in the correct spot.
Oh well, its still better than anything I could build. So keep it up. And yes, I love to pay extra attention to replicas that I am familiar with. :P
@AgDynamics god ur good i have no way of describing this airplane
@AgDynamics hey I down loaded it and handles fabulously
So to my question could you make a raaf black cat for me plz because i have tried to do it and that plane is very special to me you see my great grandpa flew that plane so are you up for it
