Default RE: Heinkel 31 Float Plane

Here are some photos of the Danish HM II (Heinkel He-8) on test flight day. Flew just fine. Water handling is excellent.

Could use more power. It flies scalish, more like a sport plane, but without a lot of vertical. I think all the scale struts add a lot of drag so I need a bigger engine to compensate. Right now we have a TT .46Pro in it, but I have an older OS .61SF that I can use. I am going to leave it just like it is until after we go to the Winchester, TN, float meet on June 4th.
