- Doug DeVries, EAA 526210, and his turbine-powered G-21G Super Goose made the trip to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2021 from Seattle this past summer, with a quick stopover in Iceland. Hear from Doug and learn more about this vintage amphibious aircraft with a modern twist.
Ever since I saw "TaleSpin" as a child I've always dreamed of owning a yellow sea plane and travelling the world.
Same... Getting an aircraft like this was the easy part. They are remanufacturing Grumman HU-16 Albatross in Australia. The real difficult part about this is teaching a bear how to fly...
This airplane is sitting in my workplace right now, so surreal to see it in real life!
A beautiful tribute to the Goose!
That is such ! a beautiful aircraft, thanks for restoring it, and sharing with us!
What a beautiful Goose! I flew a Goose for many years out of Cold Bay, Alaska. I truly appreciated what you did in that restoration. Many trips into Dutch Harbor landing on the runway and the Bering Sea and taxing up the seaplane ramp while the runway was moved. I remember seeing that Goose flying around Alaska for many years and based at the Federal OAS hanger at Lake Hood there next to Anchorage International Airport. Enjoy that beautiful airplane.
Which goose did u fly? N741 ?
Gorgeous historic airplane; we owe so much to the talented people who restore vintage aircraft; thank you sir-
I believe this is 1 of 8 that my uncle Mac Mckinnon built in Sandy Oregon, would love to go for a memory ride...
What an elegant look. Wonderful job.
That’s Burke mees there flying that goose...one of the best goose pilots ever... had a chance to get some goose training with him in John pleachers goose.....hope to be back soon for more.
I take my hat off to you Sir commitment brilliant outcome,the most rewarding to feed the soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a beauty. I've always love a Goose. A very special aircraft. Someone should build & sell a new version. Thank you for this video E.A.A.
Gorgeous! Beautiful!! You saved a beauty and made it even more breathtaking!!!
Thanks for the video When I lived in Alaska 1977-81 I believe the State of Alaska had several Turbo Geese!
It’s never ever geese..!! It’s gooses.....
I love the caretaker attitude! That’s exactly why I love old airplanes!
What a stunning aircraft, beautiful colour scheme and love those Turbines. ❤
Simply outstanding, very inspiring and magnificent work, Doug. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. The G21G "Aleutian Goose" I was lucky enough to fly during the 1990's is still one of my favorites. Your video stirs great adventure in the soul of any seaplane pilot .Beautifully done, Doug.

I like his attitude. Glad to see there are people with the skills, means, and commitment to keep birds like this flying

What was the cost of upgrading from piston to turboprop
"Overshot" my ass. Thats a huuuge detour!
What is the range and cruise of the aircraft?
I think I would have like to hear those engines but not to fear plenty of other videos.
Nice plane. Would have been nice to see a better view of the cockpit though...
Without the round engines it looks more like a G-44 Widgeon
And the windscreen! 👎
What song did you use?
Maybe you can tell me what’s the difference in the goose and the Mallard Grumman
Among other differences, the Grumman Mallard was produced in the years following WWII, while the Goose was a pre-WWII design. The Mallard is larger than the Goose, holding up to 10 passengers while the Goose was suited for around 5-7.
@@EAA thanks for that I live in Australia once a year I go remote fishing in the the North of Australia and my friends and I Charter a Mallard Grumman to get to our remote fishing spot the company Pearl Aviation have 3 Mallards which have been converted to turbo props and they are the only company the world to still fly the Mallard commercially if your interested the have a RUclips Channel called the Mallardguys your plane is amazing thank for bringing to old girl back to life Regards Geoff
