Well the weather was nice so why not?

A quick wash of the tail and wing-tip (without creaming in!)

Very good. Not that often you get to see an aircraft that close to water. I'm sure you crashed it the moment after! ? Wink

I didn't Ben Wink

The trick to inverted over water for the dipping is to regulate the throttle v.carefully to control the altitude and just before you clip get all the way on again. That way you brush and the engine pulls you out of trouble Wink

Gosh I'm revealing all my secrets here Shocked

Dips and taps are more like landing than flying...

You control sink rate with the throttle and speed with the attitude. Picture yourself doing an inverted gear up landing approach, the go around is done via power without any pitch changes required.

Great shots Ozzy...you're a definite master of this arcane art.

Sorry Ozzy, maybe I'm making your secrets too clear?
