Landing on water is very similar to landing on hard
ground. Set up like you normally would and turn onto
final approach. Maintain power during the approach,
as a plane with floats tends to land slightly faster than
when equipped with landing gear. As you come down,
begin to flair and hold it until touchdown. Once you
have touched down on the water, as the plane slows
down, begin to feed in up elevator as the plane settles.
Once you are slowed down, taxi back to shore and get
ready for another day at the lake.

Please refer to the instruction manual for the J-3 Cub or
Ultra Stick 25e for further information on flying with floats.

We hope you enjoy flying off water as much as we do.

Happy Float Flying.
