Right..an idea I've had for ages ...as the title says ..a Mossie on floats but with landing gear too.
So it can do the water and land landing bit ..it can also land on hard ice with either wheels or the floats but that's not really recommended 🤔.
Hard ice isn't great for softish metals 😊

Anyways since I wrenched my left thumb opening my coffee jar this will be a placeholder for a minute or two 🙃
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

That's an interesting idea. Where are you getting the floats from?

Shouldn't be to much of a mission really bud...I managed to mount floats on that triple engined P-38 thingy so this should be easyish  ;D
Famous last words of course 😆
The hardest part will be a very good paint job and getting that mojo going to do it .

So 1/32 scale floats, what scale is the aircraft?

Lets agree to disagree on that. Inch High Private Eye was the only American in 1/72 scale, though these days he appears to have bee supersized to 1/48  :-\
