Here's a video of a "Wrecked Beaver".
This plane is a De Haviland Beaver, one of the most popular float planes in Alaska and Canada.
There were 4 people on board, and two dogs, and all walked away with minor injuries, if you can believe it.
What a small world. I got a call minutes after that crashed happened. I have meet the pilot on several occasions and I'm great friends with his neighbor at his lodge on Bulchitna Lake in the Susitna Drainage of Alaska. The irony of it all is that I am also the lucky survivor of a plane crash in a Beaver. It was 2001 - Rust's Flying Service. Took off from Lake Hood, crashed a mile from Bulchitna Lake, . . . and video taped it. I'm still not fully over it. Many others aren't so lucky, and this happens way more often than it should. Don't ever fly with Rust's Flying Service.
