One thing that I would like to see is a comparison page so that viewers could see the progression of your construction techniques from the Gloire to the HMS Queen to the Frederick der Grosse to the Takao.

For those who haven't seen it before (or for those who (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jan-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.boats, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.pirates) !!

(...) The catalina's are the coolest hopefully my next flying boat I build will have a working landing gear that would be great and i want to make the living quarters even grander. Thanks-James (21 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.boats)

(...) Excellent! You've captured the catalina style flying boat very well. The working landing gear is a nice touch (am I right in thinking it's not weight bearing, though?) The fold out living quarters are great too. Cheers Richie Dulin (21 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.boats)

That's cool. I really like your almost surrealistic models, and this adds to them. The hot water/cold air and vica-versa idea is very interesting, and the piston assembly on the back is very neat.
