Pre-Flight

In this episode of the Stuck Mic AvCast, we talked about a quick recap of the Women Fly It Forward event back on March 10th, 2012. Carl was attending the Planes, Trains, & Automobiles event at Plant City Airport, Florida during recording so you’ll enjoy a fun airplane sound seeing tour as airplanes takeoff in the background. Then Len finally got to share his Super Cub Alaska bush flying adventure stories from Summer 2010 and Winter 2012. Special thanks of our sponsor, Keel & Curley Winery for lending us their hangar at Plant City!

Piper Cub Bush Wheel Water Landing

by Leave a Comment

No, he’s not amphibious… You’ve got to see this video to believe it! This guy comes in for the approach to landing, touches the wheels in the water to slow himself down before coming to a stop on a sand bar.

BUT check out what happens near the end of his landing when he gets slow. Have you ever seen an airplane make such a watery splash? Too cool!

Enjoy!
