Float Planes Anyone ?

There is something really cool about a J3 Cub on floats. I know, my wife took a couple of lessons over at Jack Brown’s Seaplane Base in Winterhaven, Florida. This is the lady that has only screwed up the courage to get into a land based, single engine land, Cessna 172 on one occasion. I though the flight was quite smooth, but she has not been back !

Of course, once you have your water wings, otherwise known as a Single Engine Sea endorsement, you can fly yourself off of Lake Parker and keep your airplane tied to your dock or run it up onto the “beach” next to the dock.

Jack Brown’s Seaplane Base provides all the training you need. If you have an airplane with a set of wheels, Winterhaven Regional can provide you some solid ground.

The chamber of commerce has some additional information for you here at this link.
