One emergency water landing and one planned water landing.  Good takeoff at about 1700 lbs., gross weight is 1800 lbs. I had more work to do on the plane and the pilot before getting to the Water landings and takeoffs.  It is next on the list, this fall.
 
Engine temps is no problem here at this time of the year. I can do full power, full time and engine temps stay below 200 deg. F.  I normally climb at 100 mph.  I can climb at 80 mph with better vertical speed but it is harder to keep the engine temp under control at that speed.
 
The upper wing incidence is an illusion because of the winglets.  I built the winglets for the fuel tank vents, it raises the vents a bit.  I do not remember the wing incidence but the two are very close if not identical.

Congrats! Rino!

 

Have you tried a take off and landing on water yet?  You were getting a pretty steady climb rate of 1000 ft/min.  I couldn’t read the temps and rpm on the EM-2 in the video.  What were you getting?

The two wings seemed to have very different angles of incidence.  What is up with that?
