All brilliant, you have some remarkable concepts there.  The Sundershack/Shackeland is very realistic and the waterline Sunderland?  Just begging to be made a land plane.

If it's great, I did it. If it's naff, I found it.

The float Under the tail is so rare a feature that this real aspect looks what-if... ;)

thanks gain !

the tails float is a curiosity indeed, but it really happened in the very early float planes :
maybe we could imagine what if it had continued being used in more moder floatplanes?  ;D

Ah, I know they are a real world option on various Huey models.  You did a beautiful job of modelling them. (Brian would love the little-used tricycle gear option for Hueys, absolutely gorgeous spats).
