How to rescue a Goose with a chainsaw...

I saw this on another forum and enjoyed watching it. I have never seen a goose this large waddle before take off.

Pity the poor sods who had to go up there and fix the engines first.

Nice plane to go get back, though.

Great video.

Must be a tough aircraft, not much damage running it over the ice.

Lucky the ice had not crushed it with the hull being immersed,

Was it Shackleton's ship I am thinking of?????

Interesting video.

Lovely aeroplane; and a good job done in saving it. It would have been a great shame to have lost it.
