Thread: Drain plugs on your plane??

    Just heard on the news a student pilot with instructor landed a plane on Lake Mohave near Cotton wood Cove and didn't put the drain plugs in the pontoons. The plane sank in 8 feet of water. No injuries.
    Guess you need to remember the plugs on your plane too.
    I'm trying to find a text link from the local papers.
