I loose points for this post! I photographed it through a window because I am not allowed on the ramp without a flight instructor. Later, when we were out on the ramp and done flying, I should have used my camera to photograph it without glass and reflections in the way! Epic Fail! But this is an astounding aircraft. It is a Cessna 208 "Caravan" on amphibious floats, meaning it can land on water or land. And this is a turboprop aircraft. That jet engine turning that propeller has a LOT of power. I wish there was someone standing near the aircraft so you could see how huge it really is. I would love to see this aircraft take off, on either land or water, but water would be more spectacular!
This looks so much bigger than other seaplanes that you have taken photos of. Hope you had a great day of flying. Betsey
ReplyDeleteI remember you taking photos of a seaplane out in Washington State or somewhere out west. This looks so different and bigger, although the other plane was in the water. Hope you enjoyed your flight.
