Uni-prop Scimitar Sea plane

4,356 rggaming1  8.9 years ago

This is the next sea plane in my Scimitar series. However this little sister to the twin prop can't fully live up to her sibling's name. This plane is based on the supermarine sea plane which was the predecessor to the supermarine spitfire. Like the original, my version does not have any form of landing gear, but it excells at takeoffs and landings on water. Although I have tried adding landing gear, it always affects the shape of the pontoons and makes the plane unable to take off or land on water.
