Re: Antilles Air Boats Sandringham...Pics !
Very nice Rui.
How many flying boats do you have now ?
Could we have a picture showing all of them ?

Re: Antilles Air Boats Sandringham...Pics !
 I had one officially ordered from CAM UK once upon a time, but as usual they never showed any interest in me as a customer so despite over a year of enquiries and waiting it was never to be.
I'd also like to see the Antilles mainstay: the Grumman Goose, one day.
I think a little 1:200 Goose would be quite popular given all the West Coast and Alaskan examples over the years.

Re: Antilles Air Boats Sandringham...Pics !
Jean Pierre, let me have a good sunny day, no wind, and I'll go for that !
No, the landing structures are glued to the model, thats why I've been asking ARD to have my other flying boats without these,plan on getting an acrylic base...
Theres plans for this particular scheme to be done soon, I'll keep you posted 
dont loose your hopes yet
Glad you guys liked it,
later,
rc
