Thanks for looking.

Wonderful shot...just great...
I always did like that livery on the BFU "Bush Flying Unlimited" aircraft.
When I first came to Simviation a few years back "BFMF" as he is called now got me interested in BFU from his postings.
I think "BFMF" used his last name back then. ;D
Well like a lot of things I can not seem to get BFU to work well in FSX and I hope they are going to remedy that some day.
Again a great shot.
Oh just before I forget I will mention to you that one of the things we had to watch when docking the Beech 18 on floats was what was on the dock and sometimes the passengers.
The dock hands would put cargo/freight too close to where we had to dock the Beech 18 and hence we had to shut down and rely on the crewman to dock us. The passengers would sit on the freight taking snapshots at us trying to dock and us trying to wave them away before they got hit with a low wing or prop.
That is why I always liked the Otter with the high wing.
With the Canso the wing would pass right over the dock and all we had to watch was aircraft parked on the opposite side of the dock. The crewman in the Canso was in the nose so he worked well with the dock people.
Just a couple of things the old grey matter through out Larry, hope you don't mind. :)
Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
