You aviation buffs/historians ought to enjoy this, especially the Boeing connection.. Seaplane Intro This is great, don't forget to click open to watch in full screen!!!! With water all around us in Seattle, the float plane offers incredible freedom.  This video is about the history of seaplanes at Lake Union, which is unique because it is in the middle of Seattle and hosts a variety of watercraft all sharing the lake.  Enjoy this video on a fascinating form of aviation set in the scenic beauty of the NW. A full sized model of the plane (mentioned in the video), Boeing's first production airplane that was created for Boeing's 50th anniversary celebration now hangs in the Great Gallery of the Museum of Flight. http://www.lakeunionhistory.org/museum/Seaplane_Intro.html

Yet another product of our Salute to Veterans weekend. Enjoy the link in the middle of the email below Hope you have a great Christmas and New Year! Anyway, just thought I'd give you the link to our latest video which was also from the Veterans event. This is Max Rubin of the Flying Tigers. It's only a short piece but it adds to our ever expanding catalog of Veteran interviews. http://video.smithville.net/? p=2013   We managed to grab some REAL archive footage here too and were able to send Mr. Rubin a copy of the piece (and the original archive footage) on DVD. He was over the moon :) All The Best, Rob
