At our previous farm the house was right on the Bogan river. It was beautiful to see pelicans come in for a ski landing with hardly any wing flapping on the glassy water.

Living the life on a boat in Port Stephens.

 

I see up to a hundred perfect landings a day, all amphibious.

 

Pelicans are just awesome to watch land and gannets are awesome diving into the water to fish.

  1. ASI is off-scale-low
  2. Both engines are shut down (low oil pressure lights on)
  3. Flaps are at 0
  4. Thrust levers are closed, so likely they don't meet the stable approach criteria.
  5. Speedbrake is nor armed
  6. Oh, and my personal favourite - the parking brake is on!
