I have loved flying boats since a child. I rebuilt my Widgeon with my own hands and took my ATP multi engine sea from the last guy on planet earth that can do the rating! Fun day.

Well done Michael! Lovely weather, how did you find the test in itself compared to the other you've done?
Last guy with the FAA maybe, but in EASA land there is more than one.
