Seaplane diorama idea - an icebound FF33E

Not sure where this photo was taken, but it shows serious winter conditions either on the Baltic coast or the Frisian islands. The diorama builder would probably have to check out some model railway techniques for making icicles.

I hope that wasn't an Air Canada flight, or else they're probably still in de-icing!
