Semedian Fairey III-D

31.5k SemedianIndustries  4.7 years ago

Quick build today, it's been a while since I've built a replica, a watercraft and a mobile friendly plane while we're at it. This plane is portraited everywhere in my academy, so it was only a matter of time until it was built.

Why an old plane all of the sudden? No biggie, just performed the first crossing of the South Atlantic, by Sacadura Cabral and Gago Coutinho, to Brazil.
