Skiplanes & Seaplanes | Seaplane Base Arrival

Skiplanes & Seaplanes | Seaplane Base Arrival  This beautiful de Havilland DHC-2 Beaver on floats makes its grand arrival at the seaplane base during Air Adventure.  For a float plane pilot, getting a tow to the dock is the lap of luxury.  Pilots land and takeoff outside the seaplane base cove, but still in protected water leading into Lake Winnebago.  For more on the seaplane base, see Oshkosh Seaplane Base | a 7 Image Story.

The Back Story  The seaplane base is very low key and a nice place to kick back after an afternoon on the Oshkosh flight line.  Sometimes, it help to just hang around and wait for a good image to come floating by.
