@Xwaterbabe It seems they're regular visitors to Ravenglass - and in fact they were there again when I was last there again this Summer: twitpic dot com/67zvwn
he doesnt mind atall. He loved it. The plane has only just been built, that could be the reason :) Its a home build plane and my dad built it from plans. My dad had to go across to america to get a extension on his english pilots licence which would allow him to fly seaplanes so we haven't been flying it from Ravenglass that long. Im glad it made your day :D
I've been coming up to Ravenglass to visit my father-in-law (Ken Sowerby) for the last 7 years and never seen it before - never seen the plane before - seeing it made my day it did :) There are seaplane conventions? Never knew that! Glad you liked the video - hope your dad doesn't mind.
Thats my plane hahaha! Im the guys son :D we live in Braystones, just up the coast from Ravenglass. Thats the day my dad and his uncle went to nothern ireland to a seaplane convention. Nice video :D

Wish we could have been there. We are couple of old fogies, who love coming to Ravenglass on our motorbike. A beautiful part of the world

And apart from all the comments, this guy built the plane himself after building a first class catermaran. He's cumbrian of course!!!!!
