Thank you for your kind comments!
It was love at first sight when I first learned about the Aeromarine flying boat. The subject is just so cool and not military!
Although I knew the task would be monumental, I simply couldn't resist the temptation, I just had to try if it would be possible...
Even Richard from WNW's, warned me from attempting it, because of the many differences between the Felixstowe F.2a and the Curtiss F-5-L. He told me it probably would be easier to scratch build the Aeromarine, than converting the Felixstowe and in hindsight he was right.
Nothing from the Felixstowe kit has been left untouched, the box is still filled with parts that wasn't used...
Well long story short, I was able to put together some plans I could use, filling in the blanks as good as possible.
The rest is history, bit by bit, part by part was converted or scratched, using the photos of Aeromarine's available.
I took some breaks along the way, preventing me from going crazy.
Now I am so happy I did this, it's not perfect but it looks like the real thing, I'm just so proud of 'her'.
Cheers: Kent
