So lucky to see one and as you said, with its low landing speed, plenty of time to get pics. How's the memory card capacity going - lol.

Where is the nose gear? Or do they do a balancing act?

Report

Karl Scribnervor 4 Jahren

That IS the nose gear showing, the port side main gear is juxtaposed and barely visible right behind it.....better seen on at least a tablet if not full screen monitor...

It is really fun seeing aircraft on here that I would likely never see otherwise. Thanks for sharing.

Joan, Thanks for posting the manufacturer's web site. It has some details on the company's emergence from WWII, the STOL technology, design features to manage water spray, a comparison with other amphibians and a video of takeoff. Definitely more fun to browse than another covid-19 story. Nice picture.

Thanks Gary Fennewald,
Glad you liked the link. Agreed it is much better than looking at the newspaper with YET ANOTHER story about a surge or blah, blah. Regards from Japan.

Yes, the front gear disappear in front of the rear gear, plus the hull helps hide things too. A couple of second, either way, and all three gear would be obvious.

Yes, spot on Robert.
