Little progress update:
-Started modeling additional islands
-Flight trail
-Wind wisps'
-Engine/sea noise (sorry, couldn't capture it!)
-Tree sprites (need to get them billboarding)
I'll be honest, I'm doing everything I can outside of the coding I need to do...I really hate coding.

ZK-AMU [Beechcraft D17S Staggerwing] at Ardmore, 2006.
msn 203 was constructed new for the Canadian Department Controller of Civil Aviation of Ottawa in 1938 and was given the c/r CF-CCA.
From 1955-56, it was with Bradley Air Services and Spartan Air Service Ltd and by 1957 was in private ownership.
In 1985, after a long period of inactivity, it flew for the first time since 1958, and owing to the lapsed c/r was given a new one: C-FCCA.
It is believed to have then been carefully stored at Leeward Ranch, FL from 1991-95.
In 1995, it was sold to Aotearoa and became ZK-AMU. Sadly it didn't spend much time here and in 2007 it was exported to Australia.
In 2022 however it and VH-HID [Lockheed Model 12A Electra Junior] were purchased as part of a swap for P-51D 44-13016 / A68-674. As a result, AMU + HID are now safely hangared at Wānaka. With AMU regaining her identity on 18/07/22.

McDonnell 119/220 
The business jet was developed and unsuccessfully marketed by McDonnell Aircraft in the late 1950s and early 1960s. 
Its configuration is unique for this type of aircraft, with four podded engines underneath a low wing.
