Description

Versatile, efficient amphibious aircraft for career start. You can spawn it in North Meier Outpost garage or any other small hangar.

Notes and features:

Not designed for infinite fuel and electric, DISABLE BOTH. Otherwise engine may not work as intended.
Lightweight hull for best buoyancy.
Automated reverse mode on ground and on water
Mouse control, stabilizer, flaps
Altitude and waypoint hold autopilots
Reserve fuel tank starts with 20% fill by default, you should increase or decrease it for your needs.
Reserve fuel tank (under pilot seat) is not connected to main fuel tank (under the engine). When you connect them by hose inside the cabin, fuel pump automatically transfers fuel to main tank, then you should detach and store the hose back in to inventory because hose, cable, rope creates a lot of drag.
4 external doors
Separated compartment at the bow which can be used as airlock in case of capsizing.
Takeoff with headwind, not tailwind if it is windy.
Well optimized by having no sub-body.
Inventory equipments necessary for career missions.
Mixture lever controls Air to Fuel ratio for the engine. Rich for more power output, lean for better efficiency and less heat.
Detailed cockpit instruments for every need
Bilge pump, hand crank generator, transponder locator, map,

I could but I don't know how you made such a great plane and I just wanted a medium plane for those who are scared on the road in race mode plus it would disturb the weight distribution and wiring and I'm not that good at creating ships the most I did was a medium sumarino something bad and with a basic drainage system and a simple radar but no planes at all.

Why not modify it by yourself?

this is the best plane I have ever seen the handling and ease of operation is epic I have a question I have a question have you not thought of creating a mid size with a slightly larger cockpit for long distance missions
