..and at a very decent price. Exclusively available at the IniBuilds site for the next two weeks, and
thereafter at Simmarket and MSFS Marketplace.

Initial comments from early purchasers seem positive:

I really like this thing so far! My one and only real question is how the heck do you close the doors once they're open? The camera movement is limited to inside, so you can't reach the same clickspots used to open them, and I can't find a clickspot anywhere to close them.

Love the look. It's like a modernized Republic Seabee. I wish someone would do a Seabee or a United Consultants Twin Bee, but this one looks like it will do nicely in the meantime. I think I'll be picking this up.

One question: does it have dynamic registration?

The doors have also clickspots on the door hinges.

All these wonderful seaplanes, and this one is pretty cool. One does hope that FS2024 has water physics.

nice aircraft, very reminiscent of the SeaBee, basically a VW Beetle with wings that also floats...

They must be small... I'll try again later today - hopefully. The flu kicked my @$$ the past couple of days.

So no dynamic registration? That's too bad. For some reason, I just don't end up flying the planes that I can't personalize with my N85AX (even if they have beautiful repaints like those offered by Jankees).

 

[Tom Clayton]

Dynamic reg's work just fine for me.

Brilliant! Thanks. That was the only thing holding be back from buying. Off to get it now.
