My thoughts exactly Dave.

The 188 has always been my favourite within the "88" family and it suits those floats perfectly  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

thanks all !

my motivation came from the fact that, beyond the classical twin-engined Catalina,
I had already tried the 3-engined one recently :
so there was the potential for starting a series ...
