This (circa 1955) film shows Captain Fred Ladd escorting customers onto his Amphibious Airplane then taking off from Whitianga beach in New Zealand. The plane (we believe) is a Grumman Widgeon. There were approx only 350 of them built (world wide). At the time, they were considered a very fast amphibian design. (another piece of 8mm film history)
