This is a video of the Dehavilland beaver plane crash at Lake Hood in Anchorage AK, on June 7, 2009. My father and I were videotaping planes at Lake Hood taking off and landing when the wind kicked up and sent the Beaver taking off right at us. The wing was less than 5 feet over our heads, and the radial engine was less than 8 feet to my left. No exaggeration!! The Slow motion at the end gives a little better look at how close it was.

This is an 8:40 minute movie about a Canadian built 1944 Noorduyn Norseman bushplane. Next year, after conversion to wheels this aircraft will fly a 10,000 mile trip around the perimeter of Canada. This flight is partly about the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Powered Flight in Canada, and partly about the combined 100 years of experience of the two pilots who will make the trip.
