What started life as a mini cruise ship turned into a serious airliner! After spending so much time building this heavy floating brick of a fuselage some 10 years ago, I though to myself "Lets see if I can make it fly!". As it turns out. it flys really well!

To take off on land, rotate at 350 MPH. Beware, there is a lot of elevator authority. This is needed for water take off.

Speaking of water take off... To take off on water: Ensure landing gear is up to minimize drag and let this cruise ship get to max water speed. Then, ease it on off. You will likely have to bounce it out of the water a bit but it's second nature once you get the hang of it! Happy sailing, and flying!

This jetliner is a work in progress and I shall be working on a revised version of it. It does have some flaws. It likes to enter stall spins and could use more fuel capacity for real long flights. Otherwise, it flys unbelievably well for what it is. A flying cruise ship!
