Flying on land is also an option. The airport from Isafjörður is nice too but the water on "Pollin" is bigger and better. (except there is nice cosy weather here with 30m/s wind).
As far as i found out, there is no one here anymore with airplanes in IFJ.
Do you have other informations or "frænkas" that are into airplanes here???
Hvað með páskahelgi... sjórflug, skiði, aldrei for ég suður og fulluri. The weather is usually pretty ok, the sea is not frozen anymore and we even have sun again in the valley.
[quote=Gaui]Silla fer alltaf vestur um páskana að hitta foreldra sína -- kannski kem ég með í þetta sinn ef ég má hafa með mér módel. Á samt engin flot [/quote]
Hmm... Kominn tími til að Gaui fari á flot?
Sjálfur er ég búinn að útvega flotgræjur, þó það sé ekki eins fágað og hjá Ralf
Hver veit nema maður geti töfrað fram einhverja afsökun fyrir að fara vestur um páskana???

my floats are just out of 10cm styrofoam, shaped with a band saw. the step is (i think) 2cm back of the CG. Front tip is a bit (ca. 5cm) over the propeller and the back tip is behind the trailing edge of the lower wing. A very little nosedown helps the plane to lean backward while in the water.
This works fine, kostar 300kall og búið.
I also use them on snow
This is the plan from the big Pup i built once just scale down and... voila...

one crash occured during a low (too low) flight with only the lower wing in snow. left lower wing broke but was fixed again.[/quote]
