Very impressive. The Storch of German WW2 vintage came to mind when I watched these.

Gee, you wouldn't want to get those water landings wrong, would you.  |

I always wonder when I see things like that, how did they know it would work before they tried it?
Here's my Remos at Parakai, brake off at 3 seconds, airborne at 8.

Thats a good one too , there are quite a few when you start looking for them . Personally Im still gob smacked by the " water " landings . That could go wrong SO easily .

Those first two especially are spectacular shots Gavin. The spray and rainbow, wow! You must be really happy how these turned out.

That just looks so "wrong " . Making the initial touchdown on water is bad enough , but on a fast flowing river ( presumably the Wairau ) , sideways to the current ! Must be like trying to land on a giant treadmill thats going across the runway !
Brilliant videos .
