Catalina C-type | Flying Boat

Description
Hey Everyone! This is my new creation inspired by legendary amphibious aircraft of the 1930s PBY Catalina. It can take off from water as well as from land. Few notes below, enjoy it!

Basic operations:

(Do not hurry up)

1. Turn ON Fuel Pumps, Gyro, Alt Warning Systems (all above left pilot seat) (Lights switches above Co-pilot - right)
2. Set min. alt (middle keypad) - optimal is 30 meters
3. Ignite engines (yellow button above pilot seat
4. Wait few seconds - propellers will start turning
5. Hit engines gear button (next to ignite)
6. Now you can move forward by middle power throttle peak. Take off power is between 0.35 - 0.50.
7. Once is plane in the air, move fully forward Floater wings to set wings in optimal flying horizontal position
(It's on the left side of pilot seat)

Aquatic landing:
1. Go to alt 100 meters
2. Set Floater wings to vertical position
3. Set power to 0.20
4. Go down and watch Alt Assistance gauge in the middle
5. Once is plane in 10 meters, set power to 0.00 to get optimal land (otherwise Catalina nose could dive too low)
6. Hit gear button
7. Hit yellow ignite button

Note: Actually it's quite hard to successfully aquatic take off in strong wind.
Note: You can use aquatic taxi (big black switch above Co-pilot seat) - use arrows for moving. It drains battery!

Hi there, I've built a plane using your Catalina as a base model. I'd like to know if I could get your permission to release my plane. It's based off of a Sikorsky S43. I will of course link to your workshop creation in the description. If you're interested in seeing screenshots or just knowing more you can add me on Steam or we could talk on Discord
