Yes it does. Our group builds never close.

Thanks! It will probably be some time before I get around to finishing the Catalina, the blue bird is the first priority.

A magnificent SM-55X from Guy.

An excellent Savoia Matchetti SM 62 from Gera. Amazingly, this beauty is in 1/100 scale.

This post has been inactive for a while. I neglected to add my 1/144 Sunderland and 1/72 Goose to the mix. In addition I have a Catalina on the bench that should be done shortly.

 Would my Macchi M5 and Douglas Dolphin qualify?

Gordon, your two flying boats are indeed qualifiers for this cook-up.

Here are two magnificent models from Gordon's skillful hands. The first is a 1/32 Macchi M5 and the second a 1/72 Douglas Dolphin.

While spending a few leisure minutes surfing Gordon's gallery album, i came upon another model that we missed adding to the cook-up. Here is a diminutive gem Sea Skimmer in 1/72 scale.

More additions to the cook-up are Pete's very fine box scale Catalina, Vickers Vedette, Beriev R-1, Beriev BE-4, Short Sunderland, Consolidated Commodore, Canadair CL415 and Grumman Albatross.

Further searches found this 1/56 beauty hiding in Johnnytodd's photo album. This Catalinas was submitted in Jan 2013.

Guy Lacasse gave us this rare Sikorsky S38.

Well, if we're talking about old submissions here, I can contribute these two: a PBY-5 Catalina from 2012 and a Sikorsky S-39 from 2008...
And so it goes...

Thank you Jim, both are an excellent addition to the cook-up.
