From the attitude and area of downwash, looked like the ac was coming in downwind. Perhaps too fast, left the application of power/pedal late, lost directionally control/lift, no ground cushion, basically.. *ucked it. Ended up in the drink, thought "Hey everythings still working"
Didn't nb the fact that his Tr was in the wet stuff, and damaged, until he lifted, then it was all too late....
But then that, like everything else on this thread is pure speculation. Look forward to the findings...
Restricted approach direction due to show/film/viewing requirements (ring a bell??)
