Grumman J2F Duck

Not the best, but the best I can do. My all time favorite real aircraft, an unsung hero of WWII. This aircraft was a general utility and search and rescue plane for all services - Navy, Marine Corps, Army Ar Corps and Coast Guard. Thanks to someone for the insignia decals - cant remember who...Oh it was isod89.

Very docile flight from land or water. On water takeoffs, it needs some up elevator to help keep it straight. When landing on water, slower is better.
