Matso, that is a sweet plane! Or is it a boat???? ;) Anyway I think it looks
great and the interior is fine.

Constructive comments are welcome. If anyone has some ideas for creating more
convincing dihedral in a 40"-48" span wing made from large bricks and plates,
I'm all ears!

Well I dunno about that, but if I was building a flying boat, I would make the
hull (below the load line) easily removable. That way you can display the whole
plane in the air, but remove the hull for when you wanna display it on the
water.

Happy New Year!
