Skiplanes & Seaplanes | Beautiful Beaver on Floats

Skiplanes & Seaplanes | Beautiful Beaver on Floats   The Oshkosh Seaplane Base provides quiet water for this Beaver.  And after an afternoon at Oshkosh, it provides a very low key place to kick back for its pilot. 

The Back Story   The De Havilland Beaver may be the best bush plane ever to put on a pair of floats.  It certainly captures the attention and the imagination of many pilots.  This pilot can imagine flying along an Alaskan river or road in a valley between 14 thousand foot glacier mountains in a Beaver.  The Beaver has become the gold standard for the bush flying with several hundred planes still in service across Alaska, Canada, and the Pacific Northwest.  For more information, see Oshkosh Seaplane Base | a 7 Image Story.
