[MOC] Curtiss NC-4 Seaplane

[Vaionaut]

Hi,

the NC-4 was a flying boat, manufactured by the Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company in Buffalo, NY.

In May 1919 it became the first aircraft to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.

I really like the design of this plane and so I built it in the LDD.

Here are the pics:

I'm not aplane expert, but this one looks really great!

Sweet meat dude- not quite sure it fits in history- you may get a better response in the LDD or Town forum. Any thoughts on where I should move it?

While this is a wonderful build, it does belong elsewhere. Since it appears to be the same scale as the Sopwith Camel, I suggest Special Themes would be a better home.

How is something from nearly a century ago not historical?

Beautiful build, Vaionaut!

Thanks guys!

I posted it here, because it's a historic airplane. But I wouldn't mind if you move it if you think it fits better there.

Special themes would be best in my opinion.

Something 5 minutes ago is historical too, but we don't lump anything that is "in the past" with history! Based on what else is in the forum, I normally won't expect to see an old plane MOC here (unless for whatever reason it was a world war II plane!). I just don't know where it will really get the attention it deserves! I'm leaving it here for now, but we'll see.

Really cool Vaionaut!

Congratulations!
