If you don't know about them, it is definately worth a look! I have several flying boat models, including a Boeing B-314 and a Martin M-130 which I will hang in my Tiki Hut when it is done. And coolest of all Juan Trip (the creater of Pan American Airlines) started it all here flying S-38s from Key West to Havana. :D This is a great site about these amazing planes. http://www.flyingclippers.com/main.html [ Edited by: Rattiki on 2003-11-20 05:42 ]
