  • Doug DeVries, EAA 526210, and his turbine-powered G-21G Super Goose made the trip to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2021 from Seattle this past summer, with a quick stopover in Iceland. Hear from Doug and learn more about this vintage amphibious aircraft with a modern twist.

    Ever since I saw "TaleSpin" as a child I've always dreamed of owning a yellow sea plane and travelling the world.

      Same... Getting an aircraft like this was the easy part. They are remanufacturing Grumman HU-16 Albatross in Australia. The real difficult part about this is teaching a bear how to fly...

    This airplane is sitting in my workplace right now, so surreal to see it in real life!

    What a beautiful Goose! I flew a Goose for many years out of Cold Bay, Alaska. I truly appreciated what you did in that restoration. Many trips into Dutch Harbor landing on the runway and the Bering Sea and taxing up the seaplane ramp while the runway was moved. I remember seeing that Goose flying around Alaska for many years and based at the Federal OAS hanger at Lake Hood there next to Anchorage International Airport. Enjoy that beautiful airplane.

    Simply outstanding, very inspiring and magnificent work, Doug. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. The G21G "Aleutian Goose" I was lucky enough to fly during the 1990's is still one of my favorites. Your video stirs great adventure in the soul of any seaplane pilot .Beautifully done, Doug.

    Maybe you can tell me what’s the difference in the goose and the Mallard Grumman

    • @EAA
      @EAA  ปีที่แล้ว

      Among other differences, the Grumman Mallard was produced in the years following WWII, while the Goose was a pre-WWII design. The Mallard is larger than the Goose, holding up to 10 passengers while the Goose was suited for around 5-7.
