Seaplane Challenge! (Closed- winners announced)

(The island isn’t meant to be kept, the cockpit is in the hut if you want to remove it)
Must be a seaplane/float plane
(I’ll include flying boats in this too)
Must be able to take of and land in the water (amphibians are allowed)

Can be both military or civil
Must be able to fly for at least 10 minutes
No part count limit (but please try and put some effort in it!)
Must be done before December 15th (this may be pushed to a later date, apologies in advance)
Judging:
I’ll be judging on the following
Can it fly?
Can it take of and land?
How many details are added
The overall quality of the build
How the build looks (is it sloppy looking construction?)
Any builds that don’t meet the rules will be disqualified
How are certain parts used for say details?
How creative is the build?
Is it a common type aircraft on the site?
Is the description good at explaining how the plane works?
Is there any cool functions?
How much effort was put in the build?
Dose it look and fly like it was thrown together in 5 min?
If it’s a replica how accurate is it?
Dose it handle like the real one?
Dose it preform like a Extra 300 when it’s supposed to be a Cessna 207?
Prizes!!
First place: 10 upvotes (possible spotlight)
Second place: 5 upvotes (possible spotlight)
Third place: 3 upvotes
All entires that meet the rules will get a upvote
(I’ll probably add more to these rules because of stuff that is suggested or I haven’t initially thought of)

@TU134 no problem!
@MrSilverWolf Thank you! It was a great experience!
@mikoyanster no problem!
@MrSilverWolf Thank you! great challenge!
Thank you all for participating in this challenge!
Sorry for the delays, but I now have the winners of the challenge!
First: @Tu134 with the M-16
Second: @ThePilotDude with the TPD Sea Mountaineer
Third: @Mikoyanster with the MIK Dorneir Sea Tracer
I just realized I was too late to enter my Maule M-4
@T8flightcrafts that’s cool, I also like the 206, really anything by Cessna I like and is brilliant
@RamboJutter not yet, I won’t be able to get around to it for a while, pretty busy IRL
Yes, so do I but many people say they are slow planes. I have never been in one though. But my dad does own a 206@MrSilverWolf
@MrSilverWolf did the results of this get published?
@T8flightcrafts I like the 207 though :(
Appearently you also understand that Cessna 207s are terrible and slow to fly
@ThePilotDude no problem!
@ThePilotDude it would be a decent difference so I’ll allow it, again must be a successor unless there is a very good reason why it can’t be
Yay! @MrSilverWolf
@jamesPLANESii I can let it be entered even though it isn’t a successor
Yo boi my Moray, does it have to be a successor for me to enter it into the challenge?
I’m getting my Maule M-4 floatplane ready
@jamesPLANESii sure!
I may enter my Moray into this challenge. But there may be an issue where saving it as a sub assembly and putting it in here could stuff up the drag... so don’t be surprised if I couldn’t. :/
Also testing whether the plane would not flip over while landing on water. Seriously.
You have a new participant!
@XjayIndustrys well i can allow planes made if they have a really good reason for why it is it didnt meet that rule
Oh snap.
I only have 2 months to build it
rushing noises
Would u take an already uploaded plane?
rollseyes DID U EVEN READ THE DAM RULES?

Well duh
Yeah but
Well no but, why do u think I put it there if people can just enter a plane I don’t get 50% of the upvotes
