Confined Area Takeoff Seaplane 

Beautiful place to fly. Getting back to Alaska is on the top of my list.

I spent 20 years rolling out to the left thinking that I would be gaining advantage by following the left torque and turning tendencies. I noticed the experienced beaver and otter pilots always rolling right and discovered the airplane gets off shorter. You are basically leveraging against the the p factor

Flying in Alaska is my number one bucket list item. Do you think that boaters make much better floatplane pilots? Seems like it would. Thanks for the great video!

Never tire of watching seaplanes take off and land... don't know why.

Nice flying. I have a 1946 7ccm c90-8 on floats and ski's I have wheels but i have never had them on.

Awesome!!!

Awesome

Great videos man ! Just curious, what drone are you using to get these amazing shots ?

Has anyone ever tried hydrofoils on a seaplane to be able to takeoff with less drag on the water? Also, would a hydrofoil give you smoother landing in less than flat water so the pontoons only touch when the plane is at a slower speed?

What was that red turboprop seaplane at the end?

CFII 750hrs looking to have fun with flying again. COVID hoax is making moving to Alaska look like a good option.
