READ!!! A fully functional PBY Catalina. Side floats also act like alerons (for cosmetics) so the plane can not roll then the side floats are deployed (using vtol controls). On water take-off, retract the sude floats and pull down a little with full throttle to gain speed. pull up hard when hitting the 120mph mark (this is due to the plane's weight and low power).
