Could never figure out why sea planes alway aim for shore when taking off he had lots of lake left......must be a wind direction thing

Only thing that pilot will fly for a while will be paper airplanes.

I saw a beechcraft belly land a few weeks ago guy was lucky it did not flip.

Ya woulda thunk he might of bailed before getting too close to shore...but how many of us have had opportunities to make the 'smart' decision and didn't.:rolleyes: always good to watch some good carnage though:cool:

If you watch the vid closely you can see the wind push the plane right at the point of to late. He was commited and all that was left was hope you have enough airspeed to lift over the bad stuff, obviously he didn't. Hope nobody was killed or seriously hurt:sadbanana:.
