Welcome!
In this challenge, you'll have to build an efficient seaplane, capable of taking off and landing from water.
Seaplanes are the best type of plane btw
Rules:
Your seaplane must be able to take off and land in water.
Can be fictional or replica, although for replicas, try to make them as realistic as possible.
No seaplane is good without a cockpit, please try your best at making an internal cockpit, even if it doesn't look good.
Must be under 540 parts.
Helicopters that can land in water are accepted.
Must be a successor
Some inspiration

Grande fra @MemrWii
@GoldenArrowCO yea
Are u italian?
@Spitfire12 no
Can I turn one of my older planes into a seaplane and enter it into this challenge? @MemrWii
Ok good @MemrWii
@Star737 it just needs to be able to land in water, propulsion system can be whatever you want
Btw could I allow my seaplane that is powered by jet engines enter this challenge?
Ok thanks
@404NameNotFound no no it doesn't, seaplanes can either be amphibian or sea only
mine can't land on land does that matter?
@MemrWii ok
@Memrwii i finally finish my (kinda) seaplane (it look bad bc i use ipad to build it).
@Dragorans only one
I have a question
How many entries can I make?
Because I have plans for two planes, one more basic and detailed, and another experimental to test new concepts.
Hmmm - I might have something for this challenge, then… @MemrWii
@GhostHTX i love
Quick question - what is your stance on flying boats? (Asking for a friend ;-) )
I finish my seaplane i tag you on my build.
@MemrWii cool, thx mate
@LieutenantSOT yea sure
Is amphibious allowed?
I think that better summarizes my question lol
@Omgairplane no
Can i change someone’s dhc-6 into a sea plane and add cockpit bc this is easier for me.
If so, I have an interesting heavy bomber design I've been wanting to try
