When my late-dad was a boy, PBYs would fly low and buzz the fishermen on the bay where he would fish. He said that they would buzz him so low that he had to lie down in the boat.

You'd be amazed at just how much trash and junk accumulates on these beautiful deserted islands.

I love old planes.


I love old flying boats / amphibians more.

It is quite possible that I have more old Alaskan airline / airplane memorabilia in my collection than I do for old cars.

A random taste at http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/realGasMan-01.shtml - if you like gasoline?

I love planes too, thing is I also love the water so float planes, amphibians & flying boats seem to make allot of sense... But I checked my budget & found it was missing.....
