Beautiful plane , beautiful landing, beautiful Lake Hood, spectacular mountains , WOW!.........I stayed in a hotel on the lake in 1968, always remember it.
I am from Uruguay, 85, no pilot, but I love aviation. What an excellent video! Most impressive scenery and picturesque hydroport/ airport to operate from.
Congratulations to all! I am so glad I was able to thank Tom Wardleigh for his service to Alaska airmen. His segments on Alaska Weather were, and still are, priceless! Hopefully those old stories have been written down...
Love seeing this restored and flying again. Last time I saw one of these was in Maine on Moosehead Lake just outside of Greenville. I’m a huge fan of vintage aircraft
Beautiful! Not bad for an 80 year old flying boat. Grumman ironworks and dedicated maintenance. I'd like to think that if and when I hit 80 I'm in such great condition!
Great to see a Goose back in flight. I got to fly in one back in my college days fire fighting with the BLM around McGrath, Alaska. Lots of fond memories and one fatal helicopter crash
Lake Hood Seaplane Base is adjacent to Anchorage International Airport. If you look at it in Google Maps it will be clear to you. In short, yes. The strip of land delineates and protects the “runway”.
Great job : the plane is beautiful with nice colours !!

Seems to fly beautifully. Love the livery too. Outstanding build guys. Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see such an old aircraft still flying and even better that it's a seaplane.
One of my favorite a/c in a very striking paint job.
Beautiful, just beautiful. 👍👍👍

Wow! What a difference from when I saw it last September.

Burke is one of our (Alaska) best living pilot
Beautiful Aircraft!!
Nice two ship Raptor flyby at 2:24!
Awesome video!
Enjoyable video. Thanks
Radials instead of PT6s. For historical reasons? Great looking plane. I used to watch them up in Kodiak flying in and out of the harbor.

A beautiful aircraft and wonderful piloting skills, I found myself thinking "Sink rate, pull up!" lol.
Talented pilot
Is this that same area where a plane was trying to takeoff, banked and crashed towards the left into those buildings not too long ago?
If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, and flies like a duck, it's a Grumman Goose! 😁😅😂🙃
Magnificence.
good camera guy
❤❤ Great video! Many thanks for your Lifetime achievement in Restoration of Flying Buddy 🙏
Pretty bird, everybody should have one...
2:25 Awesome!
"The plane! The plane!" No WAIT. That's a Goose. Even more impressive than a Widgeon.
The Widgeon from that show was a French built SCAN with R-680s. Dreadful airplane, particularly if compared to a nice McKinnon Widgeon.
What us the purpose of that big patch of land in the middle of the lake? Is it man made?

Touch for scoop the water into bladder at plane
I like the way the pilot was picking his nose and landed on the wrong lake.
