Finally, I have succeeded in making a working seaplane . Of course, it might be my flying ability. It also features the most detailed cockpit. It has a few extra features just for fun, too.

AG 1: Internal cockpit view.
AG 2: Navigation lights.
AG 3: Landing lights.

Flight Manual:
-Land landings: VTOL down for flaps, land at any speed.Turn off engines around the point that you touch down.
- Water landings: NO FLAPS! Come in at the lowest angle you can. Make sure engines are COMPLETELY off BEFORE touching down. Preference speed: < 100 mph; any faster and you run the risk of flipping the plane.

    @spefyjerbf Thanks! I agree, the nose is not the best, but I tried with a few other configurations, and this one was the best aesthetically. The fuselage nose cone looked like it had hit a wall and bent up. Just plain UGLY.

    This looks quite nice. I think the nose should be a little different, but I can tell that you put effort into this. I'm gonna spotlight it so it can have a little more attention.
