These guys took a Dornier seaplane for a spin ...

.... and they performed a neat and spectacular one indeed:

To tell the truth, it was not intended to perform a manouver like that with this awfully beautiful Dornier Do24ATT - no one was injured, but the plane had to undertake some repairs - which was the result of hitting a log floating in the lake (a speedboat hit another one several minutes before the landing). And it looks like some heavy raining moved heavy wooden material down to the lake several hours before.

 

Enjoy! AA_Engadin.

Ouch! :o: Glad noone was hurt.

 

I wasn't even aware, that there were still airworthy Do 24s flying around. That's awasome.

 

I built a kit of one of those as a kid.

Nice.

 

And at this point, include my standard request for seaplanes in BoS / BoM / Bo? / etc.   ;-)
