For people who live in North America, especially mainland USA and Canada, I've produced a DVD devoted entirely to float planes in Alaska.
This would certainly bring back memories for so many who have flown as a part of life and an easy way to travel from place to place.
Although my videos are mostly designed for aged care, they're still great to watch for relaxation and armchair travel by people of all ages.
While I was in Alaska a couple of years ago, I spent a day and a half walking around Lake Hood, near the main Anchorage Airport. I also did some float plane training from Lake Hood and Trail Lake at Moose Pass, south of Anchorage.
The planes are colourful and the background shows the beauty of the mountains, the lakes and their surroundings. Reflections in the water abound. There's nothing quite like float planes. You have to be a sailor and a pilot at the same time. You need a life jacket, rope and a paddle and in some cases a rifle case attached to the wing strut.
I've also done an "Alfred Hitchcock" in this DVD. Two of the planes I flew in are well represented. And by the way, you'll never guess what my favourite colour is!
Many of the photos have appeared in "Awesome Aviation" but there are quite a lot which are new. The soundtrack is also the same. As usual this is available in NTSC and PAL format and the price is the same at $25.00 plus postage.
In future videos you may also see the scenery which I photographed from the plane but buy this one first.
