The G-44A is an American high-wing, twin-engine, amphibious light aircraft produced by the Grumman Aerospace Corporation.nnIn the late 1930s, Grumman envisioned a smaller version of its G-21 Goose, which had proven successful as a business transport aircraft. Called the Widgeon, the prototype of the aircraft first flew in July of 1940, intended for the civil market. World War II intervened, however, and the production aircraft entered service for the militaries of the United States and Britain. At the end of the conflict, Grumman revisited the civilian concept for the airframe and released the G-44A Widgeon. The G-44A, with seating for six including the pilot, quickly became well-known as a reliable, durable machine eminently capable of operation from both land and water, notably in austere and remote areas like those of Alaska.nnThe Widgeon is driven by two wing-mounted Ranger 6-440-C5 six-cylinder engines that each produce 200 horsepower. The airplane has a maximum speed of 160 miles per hour, a climb rate of 1,750 feet per minute, and a ceiling of 18,000 feet above sea level.nnA classic gem in the history of aviation, the Grumman G-44A Widgeon allows pilots to access the sky from either land or water, and do so confidently. From inside the cockpit of the burly machine, aviators can launch into the heights from a modern airport, then touch down on a river deep in the backcountry, then leap again into the air from the shore. A go-anywhere craft, the Widgeon provides one of the rarest opportunities to be found in the world of aviation, one that combines piloting with exploration.

Remember the tale of the Ugly Duckling? I recommend buying this delightful ugly duckling, then download some of the great liveries for it, and turn your vintage beast from a "barn find" into a beautiful swan. She flies great, is more powerful than I expected, and has a very detailed and animated interior. I have no idea why the creators appeared to go out of their way to make this plane so ugly with such hideous liveries, but thankfully JK and the other great livery makers took good care of this wonderful plane.

Great plane, very detailed and lots of functionality implementer. I really liked that they included all the checklists in the Sim by pressing shift + C. Sounds are great. I'm really having fun with it. Hopefully they release the Grumman Goose too with the same level of attention to details, I will happily buy it if they do.

love this plane / Boat. flys like a dream. it would be nice if they could give a option to fit the gtn750. the plane looks good but some texturs need updateing. But ime loving flying it and also water landing and take offs are fun.

Beautiful aircraft yet just short of 5 stars due to some outdated model/texture assets. The Widgeon has been a joy to fly so far, with a great sound model, flight handling, and a decent model and texture. Unfortunately though some of the renders and textures are a little blocky and the panel lines a little crude, both inside and outside. There are some lovely touches like the windows opening, but the sound of the engine does not get louder when you open them. All around, 4/5 - would be perfect with some tweaks and improvements.

For those who love Goose like me, this is one of the best, very well modeled, and great texture. Let more models of amphibious planes come.

Lovely little sister of the "goose", nicely modeled (maybe not as good as the crj700 but still on par with most 3rd part aircraft), nice sounds and flies great. It might be slightly overpowered at the moment but the flight model itself feels good nonetheless. I just wish engine sounds would gradually become louder with open windows. After all its a very unique flying boat with much character character. I'm having a good time flying it.

Very elegant model from a forgotten era. Happy to see Flysimware is in the game. next on my list is the Falcon 50 but it will take time..
