    The video camera exiting through the windshield demonstrates the need for shoulder harnesses in a float plane.

    I saw the flat spot... wondering about the 'brackets' on the L side missing bolts, maybe?

    I recently did a short field landing in a 182 RG to try and expedite for a jump plane that was holding short. I was completely surprised by how well the brakes function :)
