Tom, just keep the plane 'on the step' until below 5mph and you're safe on that one! As for buzzing the cop, I did that once myself. Was approaching low over some mangroves and as I cleared them where the water started - just about to land - there was a sherrif's boat hugged up to the trees 20' away! Pointed my tail toward his boat and aborted the landing.

I like this picture, always nice to be showing off a little, especially since they can't chase you.

Captain Don, my thinking is if the local comunity and governing authority is so uptight that they feel they must imposed a 25 MPH limit, there is no way they would entertain seaplane operations. ' I performed a precautionary landing' that's my story and I'm sticking to it! This photo was taken during the spot landing contest at the Clear Lake Splash-in. The sheriffs were there to keep the peace.
