Grumman G-21A Goose Docking and Takeoff

Pacific Coastal's Gooses are back in service for 2014! Such awesome planes. 345 of them built in the 1930s, and 30 of them are still flying today (4 by Pacific Coastal). Also, Pacific Coastal is BEST airline! ♥ (Did I mention I love flying in these things? because I do)

Great video, except for the audio. What on Earth happened to the audio?

The slowly decreasing numbers of Grumman Widgeon, Goose, Mallard, and Albatross along with the Martian Mars and Philippine Mars are the last of the flying boats still in revenue service, with an even fewer number in private ownership, everything else is in a museum or a float plane. The Goose's at Pacific Coastal is actually McKinnon Enterprises modified examples.

250 miles up the coast north of Vancouver, BC.
