Mother Lode

[Ted Waltman]

Definitely one of my all time favorite movies Walter. I've seen it for
sale in VHS on-line, but never on DVD. Wish I could find it on DVD.
GREAT movie!!

Do you know the name/location of the lake?

Did any of you guys ever see the movie Mother Lode, with a young Kim
Bassinger and Charles Heston. It was done here in BC. They had a Beaver
flying into a local lake, and the pilot misjudged the landing on glassy
water, and ended upside down in the water. Since it was all caught on
film, they revised the script, too, and used it in the movie. I believe
Transport Canada also used the footage in some of their safety seminars.

Besides the flying, great scenery, and did I mention a young Kim
Bassinger, it was actually a great movie, too. I wouldn't mind seeing it
again, if I could ever find a copy somewhere on VHS or DVD.

Thank you, Mike, for the explanation. Having seen it before, I
was enraged
each time I saw this elegant bird abused so. Your explanation
makes perfect
sense: movie cameras...

All those building, might take note and not make your initial
flight into a
"media event." Keep it a personal encounter with your creation.

And also for your entertainment, here is a bit of a strange goose

landing.

Here's the story behind this particular Goose landing...

"WILD GOOSE
Back in the "olden days", when Tamarindo was a small village and

everyone> knew everyone else, filmmaker Bruce Brown chose the town
to shoot a

segment
for his new movie "Endless Summer II". The sequel to the famous

surfing> movie "Endless Summer" came a generation later than the
original, and, of

course, featured new stars: Wingnut and Pat O'Connor, together

with one of

the originals, Robert August.

Living in Flamingo at that time was a pilot, "Hoot" Gibson, who

had spent

several years obtaining his commercial licence in Costa Rica.

Hoot owned a

vintage Grumman Goose seaplane, relic of World War II, and

intended to

charter it for tours. Given the state of the roads then - and

not much

improved since - a seaplane seemed the way to go to explore a

country> surrounded by sea.

Robert August had a fine idea: To charter the Goose to fly the

film crew

and
its surfers around the coasts of Costa Rica, Nicaragua and

Panama, looking

for unknown or little-known surf spots to shoot their sequences.

Apart> from

being much faster to cover more area, the aircraft was highly

superior to

a
boat, which could only examine the waves from the "back", or

ocean, side

whereas a 'plane could approach from the landward side, too.

"Endless> Summer

II" was Hoot's first charter in Costa Rica, and was to last two

weeks.>

On the first day, the Goose took off from the airport. The plan

was to fly

out to Cabo Velas, return along Playa Grande and land in the bay

near> Tamarindo estuary, where the crew would board, then to take
off on their

adventures.

The camera crew set up on Tamarindo Beach, ready to shoot the

approach and

landing for the movie. But instead of flying from Cabo Velas,

approaching> Tamarindo from the west along the Playa Grande
coastline, the big Grumman

twin came roaring down the river from the north, putting on a

show for the

camera. On board were the pilot, "Hoot" Gibson, and local

resident and

California board shaper, the late Mike "Doc" Diffenderfer.

Approaching Tamarindo, the pilot started a right turn to follow the
estuary, but his height was insufficient. Presumably he suddenly
became

aware of

the
power lines which cross the river at that point, and was forced

to fly

below
them. The right pontoon caught the water, and jerked the

aircraft to the

right. Overcorrecting, the pilot put the left float into the

water, and

the
aircraft swerved to that side.

Gibson applied full take-off power to get the aircraft back into

the air,

but it careered from the river onto the beach, where it ground-

looped and

came to a stop. The whole incident was filmed, and eventually

became part

of
the movie.

"At this point," said August, "we saw fuel spraying from the

aircraft onto

the sand, and there was a distinct danger of a fire or

explosion. As we

approached the 'plane, the doors opened and Hoot and Doc jumped out,

fortunately both unhurt. From a nearby beach house, a resident came
running, carrying a big club and shouting at the pilot that he was
in a

national> park, and polluting the beach. We managed to calm him
down, and the

incident
ended at that point."

Eyewitness Dean Butterfield adds: "I was up the hill looking

over the

estuary, watching Hoot Gibson fly the plane through it. He was

doing touch

and go's in the estuary, I was wondering why he felt he had to

do that in

there. As he came out to the mouth I think he saw the cable

stretched> across

at the last minute and tried to duck under it. He caught the

wing tip and

stuffed it into the sand.

By the time I got down to it, there were a lot of people around.

I took

pictures and made a T-shirt from one."

Officials of Minae also attended the site very shortly after the

accident,> and charged the pilot with flying in a protected zone
(Parque Marina las

Baulas). As a result, Gibson's licence, obtained over several

years, was

withdrawn after one brief flight.

"As it happened, the club-bearing resident did quite well out of the

crash." August continues. "The plane suffered damage to a wing and
one

of the

propellers, and parts for a vintage seaplane are not procured at

your> local

NAPA store, so the aircraft had to sit for a year or so while

repairs were

made. During this time the aircraft was parked in the resident's

back> garden, he and his family being paid for caretaker duty
against theft or

vandalism. I believe someone of the family slept in their garden

ornament> every night."

The day after the accident, filming continued with a scene where

supposed> crash passengers August, Wingnut and Pat O'Connor climb
cheerfully from

the
Goose, carrying their boards, and run off to the surf.

Seriously concerned that accident investigators or other

officials might

confiscate the film shot up to that point, Director Bruce Brown

hired a

friend to hop a Sansa flight to San Jos

[WALTER KLATT]

I believe it was Lake LovelyWater which is about a 30 minute flight from Vancouver. It's a beautiful spot, but it is one of these small one way in and out alpine lakes, and is at the 4000 foot level. I can't believe they chose such a tricky spot for that filming.

Bruce G. might remember it, too. We flew by it on our way back from Phantom Lake.
We peeked into it at the entrance, and decided against trying to land there. I am a bit of a chicken when it comes to one way landings in small areas like that. Plus the Rebel might have had a struggle getting out, too. But I know the experienced Beaver guys go into it regularly.

Yes, if you ever see it on DVD, I want it.

Thanks, but first I have to get a hold of the VHS version. I have movie
software (Pinnacle Studio) and a DVD burner on my computer, so may be able
to do it myself as well. I am not sure if my capture card is good enough,
though (ATI All in Wonder Radeon).

I am not sure how this ebay bidding works. As soon as I put in my bid @
10.49 US, a higher bid came in at 10.50 US. Then it's asking me to bid 50
cents higher??? I think I may hold off until closer to expiry which is
tomorrow.

Where are you located Dale? They also want 10 US for shipping in Canada, but
it's cheaper to ship to the US for some reason. Maybe Dale could buy it, and
we'll all pay him for it on DVD???

Yep that's one thing that really pisses me off with Canada Post. It's
cheaper to send a package to California from Ontario than it is to send it
to the next town!

Where are you located Dale? They also want 10 US for shipping in Canada,

but

it's cheaper to ship to the US for some reason. Maybe Dale could buy it,

and

we'll all pay him for it on DVD???

It's item #6471258298.

OK, thanks Dale. I am going to hold off bidding then. I am not sure what
happens to my previous bid, though. I think I read that if the other bid
cancels, then I still get it. So will wait until tomorrow to see what
happens.

However, one way or the other I would like a copy. I assume a DVD can be
sent in a postal greeting card type envelope, so postage for that can't be
much.

Ebay bidding -- look at the readmes there. Its a little complicated to re-
explain here. The trick tho is to place your max tolerable bid at 10-20
seconds before expiry, then chuckle at beating everyone else, or wondering
why the hell you bought something just cuz you got caught up in the bidding
game! :)

Thanks, but first I have to get a hold of the VHS version. I have movie
software (Pinnacle Studio) and a DVD burner on my computer, so may be able
to do it myself as well. I am not sure if my capture card is good enough,
though (ATI All in Wonder Radeon).

I am not sure how this ebay bidding works. As soon as I put in my bid @
10.49 US, a higher bid came in at 10.50 US. Then it's asking me to bid 50
cents higher??? I think I may hold off until closer to expiry which is
tomorrow.
