If you fly an Amphib, don't do this

I went through it frame by frame and just before he touched down, you can see the bumpers on the floats, then about 5 frames after the front of the floats go into the water, you can see the bumpers flying out of the water. I would be sick to death if that happened to my plane. Scott D.

Yes, gotchya now. I agree, I see the two things flying forward. Some
part of the floats, and you are probably right. The nose bumpers sheared off and flew forward. Nice observation. Never had noticed that before. Those nose bumpers are just black plastic things, glued on (I think).
