- The Washington Seaplane Pilots Association put on the Lake Whatcom splash-in on August 10th at Floathaven Seaplane base.
The weather was great, there was tons of food, and there was a brief presentation about the Aquatic Invasive Species procedures at Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish.
The Luscombe 8F landing was BUTTER !!!
Good job.
Really nice arrival and departure shots, great mix of seaplane action. That looks like it was a really cool event!
@@TheHDAviation it's a great event, very laid back and friendly!
Seeing these 70-80 years ago must have been amazing,..still is. What iconic image is the float plane on the water.
@@willicat44 that's a 1947 Republic SeaBee. Weird looking, but very capable small flying boat.
Good evening
A doctor in my home village of Bath ( not Bathurst ) New Brunswick , rebuilt/restored and flew aircraft. ( He was said to be the only civilian east of Montreal certified to declare an airframe airworthy. ) He built a Seabee from a couple of wrecked ones and flew it. I remember it travelling overhead at what looked like about 10 MPH. It was a beautiful craft.
@@robertdavenport6705 it's always great when airplanes get rebuilt and get back in the air. Even if it takes a few planes to make one.
Great video Simon! Stunning footage. If you go next year, let me know. I'd love to see this. These are some awesome flying machines, thanks for sharing. Best...Corrie
@@leftcoastcorrie I'll definitely let you know, it's not even very far south of the border!
Great footage. Thanks for sharing!
@@MyJoyInTheAir Thanks for the compliment! You're welcome!
So NOW I understand finally why the Seabee only has avionics and gauges on the left side...so the passenger has space to drop the anchor!
Nice video! How intresting plane that Seabee! I think it is a Classic as the Beaver 😊
So cool.

Start with a good looking aircraft, remove the wheels and put on floats for a beautiful aircraft. Love the livery on the Beaver and Lake Renegade.
Agreed!
