Ever since I watched the video Sean posted in "How much water for a Cub on floats" I've wanted to see what I could do. I'm sure Ozzy and some others could do better, but I had a ball.

I just got in the Cub and started looking for small farm ponds.

The trick is getting turned around.

Got off with room to spare.

Part II

Thanks for looking.

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#0000ff]That video had to spawn some stunts. Very nice, both sets L.T.

Wow...wonderful shots Larry...well done... :)

I just saw that video yesterday and there are many OFF (Ontario Flying Farmers) that have much the same set up.

Awesome Larry, is that meant to be a water runway?
It sure looks like it was intentionally shaped that way....cool......may I ask what scenery?

Thanks Chuck. :)

No, just a pond. It's PNW, somewhere east of Seattle.

Just saw the two topics, some tricky landings in nice shots, I have to say :)

Not that tricky actually, just use the paddle :)

Thanks Stephane. :)

Uh, that's the problem. The paddle only comes with accu-sim and I don't have that, yet. ::)
