Seaplane almost lands on whale in Alaska
Here's one whale of a close call in Alaska! A seaplane nearly landed on a humpback whale in the tiny, remote city of Angoon last week. Thomas Hamm was shooting a video of the seaplane coming in for a landing and caught the whole thing on camera. The video starts out normal, but as the plane lowers, it’s clear something is different about this approach. (www.theweathernetwork.com) 更多...

Also, on CNN... http://www.cnn.com//2014/07/16/us/alaska-plane-on-whale/index.html Good eye on the side of the pilot.
Is that considered FOD? Nice move adding power to get the extra 25-50 feet needed to clear the whale.

(CNN) -- Wise men say to look before you leap. In Alaska, it's advisable to look before you land. That's because, in Alaska, where seaplanes are common, you just might land on a whale.
