This flying boat is a work of art! Built from Ivan Pettigrew plans by Aris Kosmides, the 120-inch-span electric model is controlled by a Jeti DS24 and has navigation lights. Ares writes that even on the first flight, the plane was “so docile, no bad habits, just a few clicks of trim and I feel like I was flying her for years.”
magnificent!
As a navy brat I got to fly in the full-size plane twice from Hawaii to Oakland.
The pilots let me come up into the cockpit and visit with them.
Great job on the build, the flying and the video! Bravo!
