How to Beach a Turbine Grumman Mallard

[@johnbergt7]

Love the sound of those PT6's and the distinct prop sound.

Looks so easy on calm day with no wind!.. but glad to see you have the procedure down pat now, Dan. No more hats being blown across the sand-bar :-)

So I’m ignorant to this subject. Can someone explain why is the rope tied from tail to wing float?

[@pumarolz]

Such a beautiful bird , so bad there are just a few

[@MalditoLocaDeLosMina]

They don’t make them anymore ?

[@pumarolz]

@@MalditoLocaDeLosMina not at all, only like 10 flying in the world

[@MalditoLocaDeLosMina]

Sounds like someone doesn’t want to make money anymore

[@CessnaFlyerVT]

@@MalditoLocaDeLosMina these are from the 40s-50s the reason why they lost their popularity is the amount of fuel burned to go slower than a landplane. Id love one, but you have to have the right mission

Skillz baby 👍👍👍

[@Warhorse500]

With the landing gear, do you ever fully beach the aircraft? For things like maintenance, etc...

[@craigpitts2209]

And if there’s a strong wind? That must make it a lot harder.

[@aerialtransport9022]

Pitch locks. Im so doing this on my 206.

Does the FO wear stockings in case of Stingers ?

[@thatmallardguy7955]

Paul Radford yes

[@parqld]

@@thatmallardguy7955 Good thinking. I thought that might be why.

@pumarolz Frakes Aviation makes NEW ..if you have the jungle. ONLY reason I play Lottery..

[@afterhourshotrods6882]

Nice job n beautiful bird! But I didn't see the use of an after shutdown check list! Complacency is a bad habit to adopt in aviation.

[@doc3584]

3:17 release the brake and taxi out

[@cuttersgoose]

Or you could just drop the gear and roll up on the beach...oh wait, it’s not a goose...never mind ....lol
