Amazillian Island Hopper MK 2

Auto Credit Based on MaximusTheMinimus's Island hopper challenge!

The Amazillian Island Hopper MK 2 is an 8 passenger low altitude tour seaplane.
Designed to take tourists clicking pictures or VIP's drinking champagne on a slow speed tour around the islands and back.
Best take off procedure: From airport or water.
Throttle up, trim down, wait. Once you are in the air raise the Trim halfway back up to center, (just around the second from the bottom trim mark.)
The rest of the controls are sensitive, pitch, roll and yaw should be used with small movements or taps.
Landing requires power until you are ready to land under 200 feet over the runway or water, then drop power and gently glide in.
Enjoy the color changing paint job.
Have fun.
