In configuration, this was a smaller version of the
Grumman JRF-5 Goose (also available from carlos2k10). This small patrol and utility airplane served with the
United States and
Royal Navies. Over 300 were built. The models come two to a set, with one in flight and the other with landing gear extended.
These airplanes are a re-scale from our
Grumman J4F Widgeon (two airplanes) 6mm 1/285, some parts have been modified to better fit the new size.
