Modled after the Howard Hues Spruce Goose, however since im not a pro at this its not a replica, it is a eight engine large water craft ONLY plane and handles suprisingly well. No special controls, easy to fly, almost hands free landing with zero throttle and otherwise easy to auto pilot. Stats: Top Speed (Cruising) 365mph-375mph Takeoff: 185 mph aprox Medium turning rang Long distance Aircraft extra info: the actual criusing speed for the SG is 235 mph, i tried to make it so but it wouldn't cooperate. Anyways enjoy and have fun flying!
