This is Scott, one of our pilots, and Troy tying up 6KT after it had been put in the water. The Gator drove the plane over to a ramp on the south shore of the lake and pushed it into the water. Scott taxied the plane to our dock where Troy caught it, spun it around and, after Scott hopped out, began securing the lines to the dock cleats.

With more planes in the water the pilots that weren't flying over the winter were able to start their touch-and-gos, the series of maneuvers designed to refamiliarize the pilot with the planes after the long hiatus that winter brought about.
