Wow! What a sight to see! This piston-engined hull seaplane is getting increasingly rare to watch. I like every aspect of this video: the US paint scheme, the approach, the engine noise, the difficulty in beaching, the use of engines to maneuver etc. Thanks a lot for posting!

Amazing ! And I specially appreciated that you didn't add some f... music with this video ! Just the pure sound of the engines... the waves, the wind, and the birds singing !

Thank you for this wonderfully classy video. The Grumman Goose has always been, to me, one of the most captivating aircraft ever built. I've flown Cessna and Piper aircraft. A friend told me that float planes require special maneuvering and that it took her some time to find a comfortable operating environment with them. Lovely surroundings, and I agree with the comment of the natural sounds, opposed to intrusive music. Again, thank you. DJ in Knoxville TN

[@Goosehangar]

folks Do not be concerned that the aircraft is being abused. It was specifically built to do what you see it doing. In US Fish and Wildlife Service this type of aircraft was used to deliver building materials to construct a cabin nearby, according to what I was told. The beach was used at that time. The worst thing that could happen is that the aircraft becomes stuck. We have what we call the "stuck kit" which includes a handy man jack, shovel, pieces of hard rubber, and a bow saw. This is used to jack up the stuck wheel and reinforce underneath. Sometimes we use obnoxious passengers for filler. We are thinking about using obnoxious commenters. But we haven't gotten a hold of any of them yet. Thank you for your interest in the situation. Goose Hangar

Grumman said that it's the only time that a Goose looped, great plane great pilots.

Nothing like that is attributed to the Goose. There is one reported Coast Guard accident of curiosity. As reported by others in the aircraft, someone exited the Goose in flight to work on the antenna. Body found in Pennsylvania.

You can check with European Seaplane Service. They have restored one Goose and have three that have been used for parts. I do not know what parts they still have left.

Kman this footage is on the Kenai Peninsula not that far by air from Anchorage, I used to see it taking off from lake hood in Anchorage, which is by the way the largest seaplane base in the world. This is one of a few left flying, and so you know Alaska was the last place in the world that the Grumman goose flew commercial flights, that was out to the remote Alaskan Aleutian Islands by pen air, stopped unfortunately a few years ago. By the way their are also a few Grumman widgeons still flying in Alaska, one on the Kenai Peninsula and another one commercial out on Kodiak island, he flew guests out to a fishing lodge on Kodiak I used to work at, can’t remember his fan flying service name but he was an old timer, I think he still flies it on Kodiak, Google Kodiak Grumman widgeon. It’s beautiful, I remember it was yellow and blue.

I used to work for Catalina Airlines back in the 80's as a freight loader when I was a kid.
