Yeah, that is my reaction as well. Gotta give Martin credit, they came up with some pretty designs. Even the PBM looks good in a "truck" sort of way.

Man, I uncovered a whole bunch of closeted flying boat fanbois!

Not closeted at all. I take exception to that, sir!

Also, time to start with Miyazaki yet?

Lovely isnt it? They were really channelling the S6 seaplane.

Which I notice, we havent linked yet, and surely deserves it.

Yes it does!
