Bloody hell Mr. T, from the South of France to Canada. That looks like a nice runabout, now just imagine having that tethered up at the bottom of the garden on a nice lake somewhere.... oh what I could do with a lottery win :lol:

Now I AM envious!In 1988 I wanted a Beaver ride( titter ye not) in Vancouver but didn't manage it.Tried Again in 1989 in the Laurentians north of Montreal and got a trip in a Cessna 182(on water) instead and in 1995 we were in Australia and I put my name down for a Beaver flight from Cairns a couple of days later but on the morning I was due to fly the aircraft operator called me to say that there were insufficient passengers to fly.At least on that occasion I consoled myself with a Tiger Moth flight from Cairns over the rain forest etc.I might post a few pics from these flights later.Hope you really enjoyed it Mr T :thumbsup: EricT
