Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Immediately my brain conjured up pics of a floatplane Gannet being craned back aboard HMS Blake or Tiger!  ;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

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The twin-hull version of your Viking jet had the advantage of "no external float" (saving weight and drag): <_<

Small... how much?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consolidated_P2Y tells me the length is 18.82m meaning 1/350 is 5.4cm (2 inches). Good, congratulations! :thumbsup:

Nice.

Do you have a scale reference object (cat, lego minifig, human body part etc) you could photograph with them?

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

The P2Y's sister design the Commodore was used by Pan Am and NYRBA (New York, Rio and Buenos Aires Line) in the US, along with Brazil, Argentina, the Bahamas and China.

Uh? Question about English language: I thoughr that "handsome" was related to masculine beauty while pretty/beautiful/gorgeous was related to feminine beauty and that plane/boat was feminine in English (masculine in our French, ericr and me). What to think? :unsure:  ;)
