A small two-person sport plane. Intended for land or water landings and rather stylish (the original is, at least) I rather enjoy this design, and would love to fly the real thing. Detacher 1 to drop the landing gear. Here's a link to the real thing for anyone interested: http://www.iconaircraft.com/about-icon.html (reuploaded to my account)

    Yeah, the landing isn't the issue so much as the ability to continue breathing.

    Excellent job with such a tiny model. Great to see the push props in full bloom. It just floats along perfectly. It would be cool to land it in the water. I guess you can abruptly.
