Grumman Goose N703 Crescent lake takeoff 

I've probably listened to this 30 times over the last 3 years or so, I love the music of those two radials and props that much!

I flew many times on the Gooses when my family lived in Avalon on Catalina Island in the early 1960s, back to the main land. The sound those radials make brings back many memories. Weird though that it took so long to get off of the Step. It was either fully loaded, or the pilot intentionally kept it in the water.

In 10 years, nobody can produce a video this good of a Grumman Goose takeoff. It just means that the technology means nothing. The photographer means everything.

I flew the Goose, as a passenger with Antilles Air Boats, a few times between San Juan (Puerto Rico) and St. Thomas (US Virgin Islands). That was in the 1970's.

Not many left to see, but what a wonderful old bird the Goose is.......WOW Please post more for us............

Love that radial engine sound during takeoff. I prefer that sound over a ferrari's anytime. It's just music to my ears.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ The sound of those engines are music to my ears

Great looking plane the radial engines sound nice but i'd much prefer a turbo turbo prop setup. A modern carbon fiber version of this plane would be spectacular.

She's a beauty!!!!!

Просто лучший аппарат ☝️ Чистая механика обожаю, всё на руках!

According to Pen Air in an article I did not manage to post, their annual costs about 100.000$. But they are landing in salt water and probably have many flight hours per year.

YES!!!! MORE VIDEOS. THANK YOU. : ) I LOVE THIS PLANE.

listen to them horses!! I see that bird in white and yellow just off the Fort Pierce inlet a few years back..

Engine Sound: Pratt & Whitney R-985 Wasp Junior

How much meters this she need to land and take of from water ?? 🙏🏾

Love those round motors nice plane. Can you troll out the window for those big lakers ?

I was wondering how much it costs to maintain this plane. things like storage and fuel, maybe monthly or annual trips to the mechanic, not exact numbers but maybe ah ballpark estimate.I know this might be ah personal question for some people so.... I'll understand if you don't answer.

Complete with JATO bottles...nice !

❤حسن المظلوم والعيد❤❤❤

Relax. And get that 36-38. You'll be thanked.

ياالرغاية اسمعني مليح هناك مثل عربي يقول من تدخل فيما لا يعنيه ، وجد مالا يرضيه، جيت نبين بلي نفهم خير من الاميرال نيميتز والجنرال جورج باتون والجنرال ماك آرثر وغيرهم من كبار ضباط الجيش الأمريكي خلال الحرب العالمية الثانية حول مسألة لماذا يا أمريكيين أبائكم أغبياء وليسوا أذكياء مثلي؟! لماذا لم يستخدموا الطائرات المائية كمقنبلات ضد اليابانيين واستخدموا فكرة غبية إلا وهي طائرات البي ٢٥ و٢٩ انطلاقا من حاملات الطائرات وهناك فيلم صور لنا كيف كان المشكل شاقا من التدريب إلى التنفيذ، قلت لهم لماذا يا أمريكيين يا أغبياء استخدمتم الطائرات المائية لنقل البريد العسكري والمدني وفي مهام الاستطلاع والإنقاذ ولم يخطر على بال كبرائكم أنها أفضل من البي ٢٥ و ٢٩ يقلعون من حاملات الطائرات، كنت أظن أنهم سينتبهون إلى الاي كيو المرتفع لدي لكن الغيرة والحسد منعتهم من ذلك ومنعوني من الحصول على الفيزا

wn6904k thanks for the compliment. A small Canon cam used. Secret is slow panning and not overusing zoom. The instructor flew and I shot because he shoots better than panning. see: www.goosehangar.com for more.
