Colloquially known as 'A Challenge".

It's a neat project for sure! Could make for a neat runabout/pleasure craft.
A few folk online have queried how much Swift is in this!

With the lockdown in place I have been left with little choice but to spend my time reading old aviation magazines, and I came across this snippet in the July 1983 issue of Aeroplane Monthly:
One of the most weird and
wonderful projects to come to our
attention is that undertaken by
Arthur Carrington and Chris
Duthy-James, owners of Leopard
Moth G-ATFU. They have com-
pleted the wings and are "well
advanced on the fuselage" of a
half-scale Supermarine Walrus
amphibian, to be powered by a
Salmson radial engine of about
90 h.p. It certainly takes the prize
for originality, and we look for-
ward to seeing a long-absent (al-
beith half-scale) shape in English
skies in the years ahead.
