Before the fishing update (which added the first actually enjoyable missions to me), I tried to make a do-almost-everything vehivle that could fit in the large port... And I wanted it to do do everything *fast*. Specifically, it needed to be able to haul at least one cargo container quickly, put out boat fires, rescue boat crews, maybe even put out forrest fires since that'd been added recently, etc.
What I settled on was this HUGE amphibipus spruce goose style flying boat. I stuck 4 of the giant diesel engines on it. Probably a mistake, I think I was switching to the aviation engines when I gave up on that project (I think this was all before modular engines too).
To get this beast in the air, it couldnt be built in the hangar, it had to use the large dock for more build space, and to get the wingspan wide enough for it to soar and glide lonh distances I designed a folding wing mechanism. The fuselage was going to be a large rectangular cargo hull sitting atop a V hull, filled with retractable landing gear, and tanks for the fuel for the engines, as well as extra tanks for water tanker duties, or for carrying other fuels as cargo, or just extra fuel for longer missions. The front was going to be a C-5 style cargo door, with a ramp that would slide out, and ideally a gantry crane to pick up and slide in cargo containers. And much of the nose was this huge cockpit and living space in two decks below.
I got as far as taxi tests. I dont think I got as far as getting it airborne though, it still needed a lot of work. But I still like the concept, maybe now that I know more about the game I'll revisit it.
Btw your hull in the thumbnail reminds me a lot of Dornier's more recent revival of flying boats. They made a pusher/puller twin turboprop flying boat recently.
