Wingdipping, make sure the realism settings are all on and the aircraft is set to as real as it goes.

My example:
...
 

My system:Intel Q6600@3.6GHz, Corsair XMS2 4GB DDR2-6400 (4-4-4-12-1T) , Sapphire 7850 OC 2BG 920/5000, X-Fi Fatality, Corsair AX 750, 7 Pro x64

This could be an added twist, how long can you go with your tail dipped in the water, it is actually pretty hard.

The trick is to keep the nose pointing slightly upwards and use the throttle to regulate height. I've done it in Concorde and the An-225.
