news:2u8yg.84360$ZW3.50960@dukeread04... When I learned to fly a seaplane, the instructor, a very experienced seaplane pilot recounted his personal witnessed landing of a Lake with the wheels down. He is dead now of old age, so I guess you can just take my word that it isn't a good idea or you can buy a Lake and try it for yourself. I am unclear as to your point. I wrote in my post that gear-down landings are hazardous. You replied in a way that implied disagreement. Now you are claiming that "it isn't a good idea", which is exactly what I've been saying all along. Do you, or do you not, agree with me that gear-down landings on the water are hazardous? As far as buying a Lake and trying it myself, I own a Lake and would never intentionally land it gear down, for the very reasons I've stated repeatedly in this thread. If you'd been paying any attention, you'd realize that. Pete |
