CN-125 Coast Guard Seaplane is a modern amphibian seaplane, which can both land in sea as well as on land. It can perform SAR (Search and Rescue) missions as well as Coast Guard missions. With 2 turboprop engines, it can land in a moderately rough sea and fly for a long time. It is a smaller brother of the famous Canadair's CL-215 seaplane.

This is my fun part efficient build (95 parts) - and freehand build seaplane, inspired by the famous Canadair's CL-215 water bomber seaplane. It flies very nicely, landing gears have lots of drag (I leave it on purpose) to slow down the speed while landing. Keep the landing gear while flying at full speed.

The engine physics: the engines are 6 degrees pointed upward to compensate for the force since they are way up from the CoM.
