Auto Credit Based on Apollo018362's Early Aviation Challenge
HISTORY (from wiki)
A pioneer of the long-haul passenger aircraft industry, the Commodore "Clipper" grew out of a Navy design competition in the 1920s to create an aircraft capable of nonstop flights between the mainland of the United States and Panama, Alaska, and the Hawaiian Islands. In response to these requirements, Consolidated produced the prototype XPY-1 Admiral, designed by Isaac M. Laddon, in January 1929.
BASIC CONTROLS
AG1&2: Shut ENG1&2
AG7: Landing Lights
AG8: Lights
Spawn in water, full throttle and pull up at 90 mph:)
Due to the lack of pictures & information of XPY-1, this design is not very realistic. Sorry about that.
I want to build Consolidated Commodore and P2Y based on this aircraft, but I can't make a promise, since building seaplanes is EXTREMELY hard for me.
Enjoy!!

Nice! Love the old flying boat designs. Also appreciate that it's realistically flyable on one engine, with degraded handling.
Is Nice touch to my collection :)
