What's that? You want another 'wheel' movie? Well... oh, all right. <br /><br />This one's a little more exciting. It includes a glassy-water landing on a half-frozen lake and then another landing on turf. The camera was mounted at the tail, beneath the stab, and more solidly than before. <br /><br />The water landing scene is in real-time, uninterrupted from shortly after I turned base until I was climbing out. After alighting I came to a full stop, turned 180°, and took off into my wake. <br /><br />The water was very glassy, and I could not determine my height, even by looking at the trees along the shore. Sure, I was below the trees--but how far from the water? It's not a great example of glassy-water landing technique, though, because I got creative toward the end when there were trees ahead and I still wasn't down. <br /><br />There's a somewhat higher-res version of just the water part over on STS in case you're curious about it.<br /><br />5.7 MB<br />
