Gets more fun every time I do it!! ;D
$50 for about 20 minutes; worth doing if you get the chance.

Puh-lease... after all, you live in the Land of 1000 Floatplanes... no need to envy me. ;)

Thanks, LOL- Unlike many of the pax on these rides, I unerstand why they tell you not to lean out or stick your camera up over the nose during landing... the pilot cannot see much at all back there. So I kept it low and pointed the camera back over my shoulder. Actually turned out to be a terrific shot, although I really need to get a wide-angle lens.

Sean, Great video, I felt like I took the flight, even checked to see if my hair was messed-up after watching it. You are my hero, a B-17 ride in August and a Bi-plane in October, do you ever stay on the ground. ;D

Not if I can help it.
 Just got back from a breakfast fly-in (C172 on the way down; C182 on the way back), and in about 1/2 hour I'm off for some solo flying. Perfect day for it...

Glad you enjoyed the video! ;D
