Hi All:

File may be too large. Stay tuned and I'll try zipping or some other way.

Sorry but us old dudes have trouble sometimes.

Is this the Mallard making the riverine takeoff? This is a great (although sad) learning tool for the folks who think any takeoff is routine. Left outboard float contacts the water during a takeoff and the rest is all PIO. What a sad way to start your day. :(
 
Can You Say "OUCH'
dont look like a fun way to land

Hi All:

When some of you sea pilots see this would you mind telling me what you think went wrong?

I can relate to this style of landing. (LOL) (Just kidding)

Then go to Wild Landing 12/25 toward the bottom of the page.

Now you know why I added this----:hairraise: :hairraise:

Is this a take off and not a landing?

Geez, now I'm not so sure if the story is true and why wouldn't it be, right? Anyway you slice it that is some really great video of an awful thing to do to an outherwise nice airplane.

That happened here in Fairbanks at this strip.

Is the snow depth at Fairbanks and Anchorage less than normal this winter so far ?

Yes it is! We haven't had any snow in a couple weeks.
