An albatross flying above water

The Albatross 3 is an extremely large stock plane, with a wingspan of ~31.75 meters, that is capable of long atmospheric flights. In the stock version the wings are very flexible so adding struts is a good idea since they can fall off in tight maneuvers. Its design is somewhat similar to Rutan Voyager. The 3 in its name may be a reference to Disney's Rescuers franchise. The name is most likely a reference to the Albatross' long wingspan.
