    Enjoyed the ride and views. To know you can break the bonds of the water and fly like an albatross must be terrific. Enjoyed your video with Sonia so subscribed. Looking forward to your next vid.

    Love the vids. I have been following the ICON A5 since it's inception. I'm now retiring to Florida and hope to come to Miami to do a demo ride. And maybe one day soon own a ICON A5. Keep up the good work and the great vids. Two by air one by land or sea it's the A5 life for me....

    I think this is the most beautiful aircraft, and despite it's limitations (sport classification) if I could own a plane this would hands down be mine. I've seen Jay-Z's plane (Jet) and it is beautiful, but I'd still take this one given the choice. I envy you and admire you for the choice you made to quit your previous life in order to pursue your dream. Thank you for you videos, and please keep them coming.

      Same here. I enjoy Sonia's vids and loved yours with her so I subbed also. The Icon is very cool to watch in vids and you look like you have so much fun. And I admire someone who has the courage to go after what they want to do. You did good, Genesah. Troy

    pilots crash these planes diving them into the water mistakenly treating the airplane like a seadoo. thank you for flying them with the respect they deserve.

    Hi Genesah , I also saw the video out of the Miami Seaplane base. I couldn't find a number anywhere to see about taking a flight in January 2019. If you could let me know that would be great!

    Nice vídeo. Congrats ! After you stayed landed on water for a while, did you check if there is water inside the fuselage ? And did you always use the water pump ? I am asking that because it may affect the center of gravity

    I was excited about the Icon when they were in development. Now that they are in production and they cost half a million dollars, it's like forget about it. For that kind of money you can buy a real airplane... a nice one

    • @GenesahDuffy
      @GenesahDuffy  6 лет назад

      389k - ICON also has a floating fraction program that brings the price down to 125k.
      Have you ever flown one before?
