My entering in the https://www.simpleplanes.com/u/Garuda1 contest. Are you able to fly this 63.000+lbs monster ? You will have to be skilled to take it off the sea but it's not impossible, play with roll and yaw to stabilise your way, take the nose to the skies during all the take-off, and then at about 160mph release a little bit pitch and..... pitch more !!!! Sometimes bugs will break one of the gear, just mirror again the aircraft and go back to fly
