Here are a few from a trip I did a couple of months ago

Flying up the Owens Valley, along the Sierra Nevada:

Today I brought by new plane home.

From the “chase plane”:

Nice @mh!

Lovely Buccaneer – is it an LA-200 or a LA-180? I was well into them years ago, even flew one for about 5hrs to do my seaplane rating. I got sidetracked with twins, but they’ve always been a favorite of mine.

It’s a 1973 LA-4-200. It’ll take some winters until she is really nice and we have to address some major squawks right away and it isn’t easy to use her in Germany, but I am confident she will stay for a long time.

Nice plane

So you finally rather went for a certified, than for an Experimental. I guess I’d did the same in that case.

I wonder how much use you can have with a seaplane (in the “seaplane-mode”) in Germany and adjacent countries.

Would be worth a separate thread describing what you plan to do and what the progress is!!

He should go to Sweden, more or less free for all there. Unless there is a restricted area or some bird area…
