A visitor from - posted Wed December 2, 2009: Wow! A flying submarine!
A visitor from Norway posted Sat July 4, 2009: Looks like the front-seat pilot tried to get the canopy off the emergency way. Maybe it didn't work properly due to low speed/standstill in the water. Scary situation.
A visitor from Portugal posted Tue December 16, 2008: I think the most apropriate words for this is: ooops!
A visitor from - posted Mon August 11, 2008: Did`nt some one tell him it was`nt a seaplane
A visitor from Switzerland posted Sun May 18, 2008: Awesome! :) but why did the pilot smash the cockpit when there is an emergency cockpit-jettison..which in the picture clearly hasn't been used. You can also see that the glider is equipped with FLARM (kind of a TCAS for small avs.)
A visitor from United States posted Tue December 4, 2007: Excellent clarity of a very unusual landing. Should have used pontoons.
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue November 20, 2007: I think that redefines the term "Landing Out" lol
A visitor from France posted Mon November 19, 2007: Nice glider ASK21
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue September 25, 2007: What a shame, I wonder if she can ever return to the deep blue?
A visitor from Spain posted Mon September 17, 2007: Perhaps the pilot did misunderstood the meaning of Sail... plane :D
A visitor from Australia posted Sun September 9, 2007: The clarity of the fuselage under the water the camera person made properuse of the light available
A visitor from Netherlands posted Sat September 8, 2007: I like this photograph very much because it features a very nice plane in unusual circumstances (to say the least). I like the story behind it and the fact that the people in the plane survived the incident. Also, the photo itself appeals to me: I like the lines and the colors.
