well, i dont see why not, when planes ditch in the water at slow speed, they dont sink. its just like being on land, so it shouldnt be too difficult to recode aa couple things to drop supplis, for pt boats and cv groups, and to allow the pby to land and take off from the water...

But im not a programmer, so i dont know for sure.. oh, and there was a floatplane version of the A6m too...  :)

But it would be really cool to see.

If it's relevant, I've noticed that in the Offline Mission Editor, when you get your camera view to below ground level, the spray/wash (whatever you call the water that comes up at the bow of the CV) from the CV arcs downwards below the ground.  I thought that was quite interesting/odd...

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
