Milton's older Beech on an Alaskan lake - the one I visited with my '185' buddy last fall.  Up near the Alaskan Range - west of Talkeetna, around Petersville, by the name of September Lake.  There was a '180' taxiing in the original but I sank it Smiley.

Wonderful shot Dave and that is the twin I fly the most here along perhaps with a DC3.     Smiley

The only problem with the Beech was the docking, you really had to keep an eye on those folks on the docks, especially the next group of passengers as they would stand right in the way of the wing and engine.  Many were clueless when it came to safety around operating aircraft... Roll Eyes
Preferred the high wing aircraft like the Otter myself but I flew both... Wink

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
