Default RE: Float Flying is the best

As another float newbie, I've got to second your opinion! I've been having so much fun with it I haven't flown a land plane for the last seven trips to the field (of course that's not permanent). All I've flown is my float plane since I got it all together.

Glad you're having fun. Your pictures do it justice, I can picture myself on that dock. There's something about running the plane on the water...watching it settle and glide to a stop on landing. The water handling almost feels like flying itself. And the setting is so cool. Bah! I don't have any good words to describe it.

You're supposed to leave your clothes on?

Now you tell me.

So, that's what the fishermen were laughing about.
