Description
Seaplane In The Sky by Kathy K. McClellan is a photographic image processed for Day 158 of the 365 Challenge (Journal 2022). This is a square image.
This is one of many interesting aircraft that I was blessed to see when we lived within view of the Bay of Saint Louis in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi (USA).
Ultralight aircrafts, motorized hang gliders, seaplanes and all manner of military aircraft flew over and around the Bay and I was able to photograph several of them.
There are several classifications of seaplanes. The two most commonly seen are the Floatplane, as seen here, and Flying Boats.
Floatplanes have slender floats mounted under the fuselage whereas Flying Boats use the fuselage for their buoyancy.
Although I did see other floatplanes land in the Bay, this particular plane did not land on the water.
