Sea plane

[debz1]

There has been some quite unbelievable flying over the bay the last couple of days. I'm beginning to the think they have a kamikaze pilot as he's been diving in at a very sharp, almost vertical angle, then swooping very low over the beach and in between the yachts before landing. This can happen about 4 or 5 times in a row while they practice picking up water, and while its amazing to watch its also nerve wracking and a bit too close for comfort.

Never seen anything like it in twentyfive years. While I presume they are flying within safety limits I'd imagine he is clearly reducing his margin of error! SCARY

I Know what you mean debz, I think it was Tuesday 17th (last). We were sat in the Ancla at lunchtime. Now over the years I have seen the plane at all sorts of heights and angles but never repeat never have I seen it as low as it was that day. It came from the back over the terrace and because of the wind direction we were unaware until it was right overhead. I almost choked on my Rosado.
