Ah, not a twin, just an Otter!

They are a very professional bunch, which can be said for the whole company.

Excellent footage. The pilot/pilots got there in the end.

@TheHDAviation 5 лет назад

It's always a lot of fun to do some spotting at CYHC, must take some skill to handle these on the water!

@VMCAviationVideos 5 лет назад

Yup, it's way easier to maneuver a twin otter

@PostcardsfromAlaska 3 года назад

When you run out of rudder, the ailerons can help. Use adverse yaw to your advantage, and come in hotter.

Looked like a great job to me.. did you see that windsock?!

@VMCAviationVideos 5 лет назад

Yeah, he had some good wind

Needs to take a boating course

@a64738 3 месяца назад

A sea plane is not a boat even if it has floats, it has very different handling and reactions to wind. They handled it just fine under those wind conditions...

@PostcardsfromAlaska 3 года назад

This is what happens when you hoard all your tips, and don’t share the love w the dockhands. They leave you twisting in the wind.

@VMCAviationVideos 3 года назад

Haha 👍

zero problems. Handled wind like a pro

@stevecarlisle3323 3 года назад

I dont see much indication of high winds, according to water surface. Looks like lack of skill in line up, and reversing.

@PostcardsfromAlaska 3 года назад

@@stevecarlisle3323 What do you estimate the wind speed at?

@PostcardsfromAlaska 3 года назад

So the wind whistling thru the camera mic, and the parked planes rocking don’t clue you in that there is wind? If it’s an offshore wind, you’re not gonna see big waves and streaks, but it will still get ahold of that otter’s giant tail. He stubbed his toe on the dock. If you miss your turn, and don’t hit reverse, you’re gonna run over the dock. Been there. In strong crosswind, if your dockhand isn’t a superhero, you best park on the end, and let them wrestle it back around the corner.

this is why we have wing ropes at kenmore

@@mattmorrissey9567 wing ropes with an otter in those winds are useless, that huge tail is hard to hold back in a light breeze.

@luckydog6975 3 года назад

you bought a plane put pontoons on it and called it a float plane. I think thats your first problem lol. need to design the plane to be a flying boat then you can put a thruster on the rear and wont need the docking crew

@thecanadianavee8r660 Месяц назад

I have a flying boat, they're much harder to dock than float planes due to them having sponsons which get in the way of the dock but floats with thrusters sound like a good idea
