Joyriding WACO YMF-5 ditches in Texas lake -all OK

A WACO (built 2012) has ditched in lake near Austin, Texas, with 2 pax and pilot getting out unharmed

”Established in 2015, Austin Biplane was created to bring the thrill and excitement of aviation to the city of Austin. Experience life as a barnstomer in the world’s only current-production open-cockpit biplane. Two passengers ride side-by-side in the front seat while the pilot flies from the rear cockpit. Originally produced in 1935, our 2012 Waco YMF-5 maintains the look and feel of a classic aircraft but is manufactured under today’s fabrication and safety standards. Feel the roar of the 7-cylinder, 300-HP radial engine as it whisks you off the ground into the skies above Austin. Feel the rush of Texas air whip through the open cockpit as you enjoy the beauty of downtown Austin, the Colorado River, and Texas hill country surrounding Lake Travis.”
