Seaplane Flight At Tavares Florida
Thanks to Jones Brothers Seaplane Adventures in Tavares FL (AKA Seaplane City) for one my favorite flying experiences! Rob did an awesome job as my instructor/pilot with several splash and dashes (touch and go's) in lakes in the area and a VERY cool, low level (50 ft) flight along the Ocklawaha River.
Rob made a special effort to fit my flight in since we'd driven 2.5 hrs to get there on what turned out to be a marginal weather day. But the weather didn't stop us from having an AWESOME flight experience!
The in-cockpit video was shot using my Google Glass.

FLORIDA FLOAT FLYING
Took a trip down to Altamonte Springs, FL to get my Commercial SE Seaplane Add-on Rating. Also scored some good leftovers from the Hurricane Eduardo Swell. Go get your seaplane rating if you don't already have it. This is a one-of-a-kind experience for any pilot who likes flying for the fun of flying. I would highly reccomend Florida Seaplanes as well. Enjoy
