Seaknight & M16, red : primary seaplanes

[ericr]

another floatplane, hardly whiffed : it is in blue
with open doors

[ericr]

a bit more whiffed :

this Skoda D.1 (a Dewoitine licence)

has floats from an Albatross W4

[Tophe]

Is this a seaplane of the 1920s?

[ericr]

yes, the D.1 is from the 20s, the whiff uses floats from 14-18, probably a bit out of date relatively ...

I was not criticizing, I swear I was not. I was just trying to understand, before clapping my hands

[ericr]

sure, thanks !   

[NARSES2]

Floats suit it 

[ericr]

thanks !

I bought this kit just to go for combined shipping and make it less in average, not really knowing why (you pobably know what I mean)

but then suddenly I remembered about the Twin Otter in my stash, and well, the floats are a bit small maybe, but still ...

Uh? I was not understanding, as coming from a mail-link (notification), and the explanation seems in the present title of this topic: Viking (S-3, this is where the jets are coming from). But as you change the topic titles quite often, the explanation will disappear soon, too bad...
Sorry for saying this about the puzzle , but concerning the model:  What a marvel! Wonderful!

[ericr]

Thanks !

the Viking in question is the S-3 indeed , but coming from me, you could have imagined
a middle-ages viking with a helmet with horns maybe

Pretty cool, man!!!   Makes sense to me, looks right at home.

Well done, unexpected, beautiful, looks like it could be real.  But I could say that about all of your creations!

[ericr]

thanks a lot ! your appreciation is encouraging me to do more
