Wacky! Looks like something Alvis would create! :wub: ;D

My cessna is full of eels suddenly becomes possible...

Thank you! I would hope that Alvis would like it. ;D

I'll send him a note and hope he's in a lurking mood today.

Well, in that case, here's the finished product. I could only dream of what Alvis would have done with this. :mellow:

Applause....

Well done.  I like the looks.  It would make a nice island hopper for playing in the Carribean or South Pacific.

No Eddie, silly week is over, and like I said before, "Alvis has left the building..." Great to see this one done too. So how 'bout a tease... what is your next project on the assembly line? Inquiring minds want to know. :huh:

That's a real knock-out, Eddie.  You did well.  I just had a smirk when I pictured the pilot bringing this one in for its routine maintenance: "How many sparkplugs do you have in stock?"

 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Fantastic Eddie! It's great to see this honey finished, and oh my god is she great! I love the little turboprops on the wings, and the T-Tail suits her perfectly!

Loving the lettering on the top wing!  :ph34r:

Bravo sir! Another triumph! Any chance of more Miller's Modelworks - Civilian Project Studies?

I havent checked on this one in a while and didnt realize it was finished.  That really is a great little build Eddie.  Love it!

You should send it in to ARC for April Fools.
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

By my calculations, it would have a flight endurance time of about an hour. :thumbsup:

Its not the workbench that makes the model, it is the modeler at the workbench.

But you'd get there real fast. :rolleyes: :lol: There's plenty of room for fuel. In the floats, in the wings in the struts, in the front seat. :lol: :cheers:

I thank you all for your kind words for the crazy build. :thumbsup:

So I guess with all those engines it must be ETOPS compliant?
(V nice, by the way)

You can say screw ETOPS when you go over two engines (Extended Twin engine OPS) so he is good to go.
