I know most of you have done ships, subs, and amphibious vehicles, but here's my turboprop sea plane:

 

This is very nice, and that cockpit design is sweet!

Here is one @klond and I built recently

Thanks! :) The cockpit is out of the STX mod (as is the floats and turbo-props). She's very stable when it comes to sea or land takeoffs/landings. In fact, surprisingly so. She can also fly at (an incredibly unrealistic speed) of 345 meters per second - that works out to about 771.74 miles per hour! IRL, the PBY-2 Catalina that she's very loosely based on had a top speed of 87.61 meters per second, or 196 miles per hour.

I've built a few Seaplanes, they are challenging and lots of fun!
