jsm sent me a link to these .wmv videos on the FAA website. They're kinda interesting, especially the Cold Land Survival.

Went through "underwater egress training" again during our annual pilots meeting. If you have never done this it is a real eye-opener. It applies to both airplane and helicopter. A real plus for float flying. www.proaviation.ca

From what I have read the egress training is very worthwhile and could very will be the difference in surviving an emergency water landing or float nose-over. I just read another of our own (180 Marty) has joined the ranks of float-plane pilots. Congradulations! Maybe as the ranks grow we will have enough interest to host a egress training seminar for our members.
