You're a private pilot? I guess if you squint the right way, you fly 747s off of a grass field, right?? LMAO!!!

Not only a private pilot but also a builder. I built a two seat amphibious kitplane. Flew it for 4 years and sold it, (two kids in college), to a guy who forgot to retract the wheels on a water landing (no injuries except the plane). I once took a guy up for my 2 year review who had made a carrier landing before (he was not seaplane rated). He said approach for a water landing is ever bit as hairy as a carrier. I think the carrier would be much hairier. Now that my kids are graduating I'm thinking about another kit. I'm a life long airplane nut and it amuses me to see a post like number 38. I thought your reply was a hoot. Thanks
