    @AeroEngineering didn't notice that until then I just wanted them away from the water in such a manner where I could save on weight and still have two engines for the extra power and in real life it's good because of redundancy an important quality in a plane like this

    It looks like a seaplane A-10 because of the engines locations

    Just letting you know, you only get one entry. So which of the two planes you posted would you like to be your official entry plane?
