Skipper in the skies - with a surprise ending

Skipper XL and Dragonfly (same as Skipper) on water.
No fish were harmed during the making of this movie.
Unlucky photo-plane: FX-79 Buffalo, highly modified.

This style of plane (Skipper, Polaris, Northstar) take off and land so gracefully, I think they benefit quite a bit from the 'wing in ground' effect.
