I saw this on the news the other day, but couldn't find the video online.

Amazing capture for sure. Shocked

I'm sure he needed a change of pants after that.

Easy for me to say but I'm wondering why he didn't abort the take-off. Roll Eyes

Wow! I tried to get that brief glimpse of his water rudders, I don't think they were down. He appeared to be attempting a right turn at first and the tail rudder didn't do the turn as he built speed?

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..

Yeah the water rudders appear to be up, if you pause at about 1:01 going on 1:02 then you can see they are up.

It also appears there is another aircraft landing as this one is trying to get off. Who's in charge of this air, I mean waterspace?
