More Andrej Troha, this time a Tupolev ANT-201 "Gorostas" luxury flying boat: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/qAq5la

Because, as we all know, the Soviet Union was all about levelling everybody up to the same level of luxury, right?  ;)

I like the 'bay window' in the bow, but I'm not sure I'd want to be in there during take-off or landing..........  :-\
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The 'bay window' is the flight deck: how's that for an incentive to do REALLY soft landings?  :o

The first time I saw this was when it was posted in a Facebook group and there were people that
insisted it was a real project.
:rolleyes:
A couple of them doubled down even after a link
to Andrej's page was posted.
