Fantastic picture, I missed it landing on the water in favour of seeing it on land….

Nice shots, Yak11Fan!

Here’s the Duck on the water:

What a fabulous aeroplane. I bet that is the whole reason Kermit Weeks agreed to host the Splash-In, just so he had an excuse to get the Duck wet…

As for the Thing In Shot 2, that just looks like too much fun!

The Grumman Duck tickles my fancy – can I have one for my birthday please?

Nice to see such unusual (for us in UK) aircraft, in their natural environment too, but what the hell’s that thing in shot 2!?! 😀

Cheers,

Kev.

Great pictures, but the Duck didn’t take to water?:)
