I still have the Airfix Severn in my stash.  Need to source a decent crew and then decide if I want to depict a rescue or just underway.

See if you can find one of those fancy yacht kits, and do a diorama of a sinking yacht rescue. :wacko:

If it was an Arun-class lifeboat you could have it towing an S-61 - https://www.pprune.org/rotorheads/609542-s61-g-beid-tow-into-aberdeen-july-1980-a.html

Or do a modern what-if model with the Severn boat towing an Mv-22 Osprey  ;D

How about an Atlantic 21 towing a Robinson R-22 on floats?  ;D
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

Given that the newly refitted, reengined Severns have 3200 horsepower (two MTU 10V2000 M94 engines at 1,600 hp each)  to play with, I suggest that the diorama can accurately show them towing just about any flying machine.
