- The 2024 Washington Seaplane Pilots Association Tanglefoot splash-in was a blast this year, and I tried to get footage of as many planes as I could coming and going on Friday and a little on Saturday.
Besides all the awesome aircraft, the atmosphere and people made this an event that I definitely want to return to next year!
Thank you to the WSPA and Tanglefoot Seaplane base!
Great video! And no music. Thanks for posting. Those PBY planes are amazing! Thanks again.
Absolutely the coolest thing I've seen. Thanks for posting.
@@MrStoney61 thank you for saying that!
that event looks like so much fun. so many cool old bird that you just dont see many of anymore in one place. looks like a seaplane lovers dream come true.
@@Rocker-1234 it was, it exceeded all of my expectations.
Boy that was a great video. What a fun time that was for all. Beautiful scenery for the backdrop of the planes coming and going. Thanks much for posting.
This film is wonderful with the sights and sounds of all the historic and beautifully maintained float planes, terrific stuff many thanks. My dad was in the RAF in oban in the West coast of Scotland in the early part of ww2, and watched the Sunderland flying boats operating and training new pilots there, so great to see the Catalina too. I visited Vancouver island back in 2005 and saw the 2 Martin Mars fire fighting tanker planes there, huge and very impressive!!Cheers Peter UK.
@@peterlocke5204 one of the Mars will be making a last flight in August, I hope to witness it.
@@SimonButler Thank you Simon, I'll look out for that too and any video you get, well done and very best of luck!! I saw them at sproat lake on Vancouver island, their home base at that time. The people there made me very welcome and showed me a huge sikorsky helicopter that had just been restored to ferry people to the mainland Vancouver etc.
Brilliant thanks for letting the aeroplanes sing and not ruining them with music✅👍
@@MrSimpleone pretty much the only time I use music is if there's no good ambient audio. Otherwise I definitely want to hear the airplanes.
Fabulous. There are very few events in the world where the Spectacle is all in the arriving and the departing. :) Love Idaho.
@@AVMamfortas I only got pictures of the fly out to the beach in Mosquito Bay at the North end of the lake, but it was also quite a spectacle.
Awesome video! My favourite were the Goose, and the Catalina...Both Classics ever!
That was really cool! I'm not a pilot or an aviation buff. In fact, I hate flying and I'm not sure how I landed on this page, but those machines are magnificent! ...especially the large ones. Thanks!
@@stevebeschakis9775 and in the case of these planes you can just float around in them like boats, so you might enjoy that!
Great video, thanks for the post.
Just awesome...My dad and I got to fly in a Republic Seebee back in 1954 off the water in Strängnäs, Sweden. I never forgot...
@@andyg6312 those are great planes. Definitely a dream plane to own for me.
thank you for that video ,brought tears to my eyes especially the PBY cat. brought back memories.
@@davidnelson4707 You're welcome, and thank you for the comment, I really appreciate it.
Outstanding and thanks for posting w/o any music!!
Dad went into flight training at NAS Pensacola in '41, flew N3Ns, etc. Ended up spending the war flying PBY-5s (no landing gear) in a Black Cat Squadron. Transitioned to PBMs. He would have loved this video. Mom and Dad loved NAS Whidby...
Wow.....what a Great Video
My pop was a flight engineer in the Coastguard in WW2. He was a PBY guy until the day he died. He also was a member of the Confederate Air Force PBY that was in SFO until they took the AC back to
Nice variety, nice videography. Thumbs up!
Thank you!
Well crafted production, Simon Butler. Enjoyable viewing.
@@helios1912 thank you!
Thanks for this huge treat
@@ToddDunning you're welcome!
Great video! Such a cool event
Thank you!
Can't agree more! 👏👏😎
Whoa this is awesome! I want to get my seaplane rating next
@@kojack635 getting the seaplane rating is the most fun I've ever had training. You can get it instead of doing a BFR, which is nice.
Great video! If you post it again on Sunday even the dates will line up.
PBY is the most beautiful plane ever made, its been my favorite since I first saw one waddle out to the runway at Geneseo ages ago, even got to fly with a WW2 PBY vet one time.
Very nice, VERY Nice!! If you've seen the Luby Bay cabin (museum,) my Grampa built that
What a brilliant video we don’t see anything like that in Scotland
Awesome work
No seaplane event would be complete without at least one Beaver. Looks like a well attended event.
@@mothmagic1 Very well attended. My expectations were pretty high and I was still blown away.
Awesome video! Too bad it's not getting the attention it deserves, but still great job!
@@KellanXB Thank you, I appreciate that!
Живописные , красивые места, всё обыденно , сесть и взлететь с воды. Рыба наверное сама на стол запрыгивает. Класс 👍
very cool!
with no stupid music to cover the engine sound
thank you
I live right by Lake Hood in Anchorage and you've shown me some very cool planes I've never seen up here. Anybody know how many PBYs are still flying? That Mallard is also really cool.
@@kixigvak I'm not sure, but I think there's less than 20 flying Catalinas/Canzos. And the really crazy thing is that there were 3 Mallards at this splash in!
👍👍👍
Over the years my dad had 2 1946 Seabees, CF-DLP and CF-DLS, loved flying in them and the sound of it's engine, not the car engines being used to-day.
@@CMan-rt9in Car engines?
@@SimonButler Car engines Yes. Some older aircraft have used ZR1 corvette engines. If you see a Bee with a
low wider cowling, then it's a car engine, if not it's the original, possibly a Franklin or Lycoming. Sorry for spelling.
@@CMan-rt9in I'll keep that in mind, I've seen them geared Franklin's and Lycomings.
@@SimonButler Story time, goody, goody. Many, many moons ago I was up in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory and walking down the Main street when I heard that sound. Right away in my mind ,it sounded like a Seabee engine, sure enough as I looked up a Seabee flew by. The next day I flew to Juneau AK and there was a Seabee parked with other small private aircraft. Seabee memories.
@@CMan-rt9in I'm actually at a splash in today and a guy brought a Seabee.
man I love catalinas
Where was the event located.?
@@kilr650 Tanglefoot Seaplane base on Priest Lake, Idaho.

@@HappyHands. Beautiful and very fun to fly.
Hmm...those plane are all wet.
Yes, and they dry out very quickly airborne.
What if it's raining?
wheres the sutherland😂😂❤❤❤❤
@@AlanMydland-fq2vs I heard a rumor we almost got an Albatross there! And I was hoping to see a Beech 18 on floats, but neither made the trip.
@@SimonButler awesome maybe someday
no goose?
@@AlanMydland-fq2vs a radial engine Goose, a turbine Goose, a Widgeon, a Gweduck and 3 Mallards were there.

Pity about the people talking in the background
@@Watson1 I picked up a shotgun mic for the future.
