B&W Seaplane 1919 NEW from By Air Classique

We've finally got this famous aircraft designed, apart from being the first Boeing aircraft, this Seaplane brought aviation to many corners of rural early twentieth Century New Zealand.

The Seaplane F was operated by the NZ Flying School in Mission Bay, Auckland.

This started off life as a 1/144 design, and evolved, as some designs do into an accurate scale representation of this seaplane. At present we are going to use this particular model to develop some more diorama work so hopefully some more images to add to this thread.

Part of appeal of the model to us was the large exhaust manifold pipe, which was short lived, and removed by the Kiwi engineers after the wing was set on fire.
