Getting the seaplane rating is just pure fun. It provides the challenge of learning a new skill, freedom to land anywhere there is water, and access to remote places. The seaplane pilot rating may be obtained as the first pilot rating or, most commonly, as an add-on rating for those pilots who already hold the Airplane, Single-Engine Land certificate.
Basic and advanced techniques for floatplanes, amphibians, and flying boats, fully illustrated with beautiful photography and elegant drawings throughout.
