I'm pretty sure that it is the same one that I saw going to Meredith Sunday morning for breakfast. Somewhere between 9:00-10:00 am we saw what seemed to be a small seaplane flying around the Meredith Bay area. Hmm...I saw it on the news this morning and thought I recognized it, I saw those exact same pontoons on the, except at the time I was looking up at them!

it was kind of like one of those ultra light planes I think. got to watch the aftermath while sitting at my sisters house at a cookout there...There was 4 marine patrol boats on scene as well as Sea Tow , Meredith police boat and the Gilford rescue boat, as well as a bunch of private boats...it was a pretty good show. Glad no one got hurt...except for the pilots ego Im sure...

Question New Plane

As it turns out the pilot is the next door neighbor to good friends of ours. Usually he pilots a small green float-plane. This is the first I've seen of him in an ultralight. It's pretty amusing to watch him pull his plane into the cove where his house is. The wingtips just clear the trees on either side. Perhaps the ultralight is a new toy ? I'll have to call him "Crash" next time I see him
