If it is sexy we are looking for this unit fits the three F's of pilot fun things to do.

Flying, fishing and fornicating all in one unit.

What's this? Two of the arguably sexiest planes ever built haven't yet been featured?

Piaggio P-180

But I still think a well-done Beaver on floats takes the cake. Misty lakes add a good bonus.

The Piaggio eh... forgot about that one. Thing is I worked with an Italian dude who wouldn't shut up about that thing... the "Ferrari of the Skay" he would say... so just because he praised I felt it was my duty to bash it. Anyway, very nice plane... I can say that now that he's not around.

Flying airplanes is easy, you just need to PAY ATTENTION. Finding a good job on the other hand takes experience, practice, and some serious talent.

He's right. When you're right, you're right. Can't argue with that logic. I've always considered BEAVERS to be sexy!!

Tee-hee... Now I'm just blushing! :lol:

While we're at it, why don't we see if y'all find this sexy too. From this angle, it's almost like poking up a girl's miniskirt :)

I don't think you'll find the beaver sexy after having her full of half rotten moose and a group of hunters that haven't showered in a week (not to mention garbage bags full of soggy cigarette buts soaked in the drippings of crushed beer cans) And that's just an average trip! she's definitely my favourite plane, just not the sexiest!
