its a cool plane, but not even 1000 lbs useful, and where are you gonna dock the damn thing? Give me a 185 on floats any day of the week.
You beach it? Seabee will hold up in rougher waters then any float plane.

The Sea Dart is outside the San Diego Air Museum I believe.I forgot about Sea Darts! I really wish I was around to see all the airplanes of those days.

B-58. Cool flying a single-pilot 4-engine jet.

On floats I really like the look of the Piston Otter, it just looks formidable.

Turboprop Twin I love the 1900C model (I think the D looks like a pregnant guppy).
Jets wise, I like the look of the B47, plus the idea of a 6-engine jet sounds dammed cool.
Favorite Plane of All time though?
Difficult to fly, high wing loading, and sent out into the aleutians to fight the Japanese with few maps and barely anything other than headings and star-sights. What a badass plane.
