bell47 Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Hi Guys I am looking for any recomendations for anyone who can train and give me a floating hull endorsement, whether it be RA-Aus or GA I am not bothered. Thank You :)
Mick Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Google ProSky Maryborough in Queensland, they have a Sea Max flying boat available to train on. It is in for maintenance at the moment but should be back on line soon.
bell47 Posted January 15, 2017 Author Posted January 15, 2017 Thank You !, have you flown with these guys ?, do you know what they charge an hour because I can't seem to find a price list on the website
Mick Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Thank You !, have you flown with these guys ?, do you know what they charge an hour because I can't seem to find a price list on the website Yes I have done plenty of flying with the CFI and had a ride in the Sea Max with him. Very good pilot & teacher. Sorry not sure of the rates in the Sea Max, my ride was just a lift home after dropping another aircraft to them after maintenance. We did sneak in several water landings - awesome fun! The Great Sandy Straights between Maryborough and Fraser Island where they operate is just one massive playground in the sea plane. Ideal for training as it offers a great variety of water conditions in just one flight. 1

IanR Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 I did mine with Kevin Bowe in Gympie a few years ago - not sure if he is still doing. He uses a Lake Buccaneer flyingboat
