Seaknight & M16, red : primary seaplanes

[PR19_Kit]

That all looks very familiar, presumably it's the Delta/Supermodel kit?

Of course I'm wondering what you'll do with those two hulls.............. 

[Tophe]

Wonderfful! Like a Northrop Flying Wing on floats 20 years before the main one.

[ericr]

thanks !

yes, an old Delta kit : one hull was already shown above in this thread, the other is coming ...

nothing gets lost !

That's a remarkable looking beast

Where does the pilot sit?

[ericr]

 

the cockpit is at the same place as the original

[PR19_Kit]

The whole flight deck crew sit right underneath the engines. That must have been pretty noisy, specially during the trans-Atlantic legs of Balbo's flight!   

[ericr]

indeed, but it is not the faul of my whiffing 

[jcf]

Very nice. 

I've long though that the S.55 cockpit needs a binnacle and an engine telegraph.

Simoun in 1/72, floats in 1/48

[Tophe]

nice scale-o-rama mix, very elegant!

[zenrat]

Nice plane, and the base looks good to.

[NARSES2]

and the base looks good to.

Certainly is 

I think the Simoun looks better on floats then on wheels

[McColm]

Well done
