bar side Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 That Princess is stunning. Didn't they think of making a Princess nuclear powered? Made me think of another odd ball flying boat my granddad used to talk about - the Shorts Mayo. Two for the price of one. Apparently he saw one (or two) flying 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not note his name but I believe it is the chap with the blue jumper who is pointing at the model. The Princess is a 1/72 scale vacuform model which is available to order from the Seawings website. Adrian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
