Hey, if you like flying, you gotta do it. Way less expensive than most think. That is definitely my #1 passion. My plane is essentially a mini Beaver (same designer), but modern design and technology. Best floatplane of its type by far. Can go 3 people into high small alpine lakes, where most planes can't go at all, and only a very few can with 1 or 2 people. Plus it can cruise pretty fast, too (faster than a Beaver, and a fraction of the fuel). Here is a fav destination which is just a 1/2 hour flight north of my home base Langley airport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=im2o...QKqeFER5HHb8jA Yeah, but if it ever came off would do a heck of a number banging on your wing and strut. I think I would rather sacrifice the camera... Do you fly?

What "canvas home made plane" did you fly at your cottage? I also started off flying pusher ultralights at our cabin in the early 90s.. Lots of fun, but certainly have their limitations. I still have one that I fly for fun.

But yeah, Maui is our fav place. Keep trying other places, but nowhere else comes close.

Nice video. But to be honest I like the flying vids better. I've watched all your vids. You posted one months ago or maybe last year of a lake in central interior. Where was that? My family has a plane at the Langley Airport as well. CRS ring a bell?
