The Consolidated PBY 'Catalina' Is love. The Consolidated PBY 'Catalina' Is Life.
An even better made and more detailed version of my Catalina. This aircraft comes with a custom built cockpit canopy, Remade the whole aircraft to look more like the real thing. It has custom rear landing gear that are powered with Action group 1. Slide VTOL slider to lowest position to lower gear. Slide it to mid position to retract the gear again. Same goes with the floats, AG2 Slide it all the way down to retract the floats and mid position to lower them. Anyways i saved the best part to last.
It's built as close to 1:1 scale as i could get it. :)
It's built in a simple yet detailed way to match the default art of simpleplanes.
