Here is a short video showing a 172 on floats being launched from a trailer. This happened at our local airport, the 108 Mile House Airport.

Hi Bill, and yes, we got back last Saturday and are looking forward to some cooler weather and some wheel flying for a change. Heading an hour south Thurs to a r/c float flyin on the Shuswap Lake and then the next weekend to a r/c jet fly in. If weather holds we will then launch to the NW and visit friends near Tweedsmuir Provincial Park. Sorry we couldn't fly together but between my knee and melting in the 110 degree temps I look forward to a visit in the fall.

I went to an RC jet show at NAS Whidbey's OLF Coupeville a couple weeks ago, kinda fun. Them things sure go like hell, sound cool too.
