LAKEPORT – The annual Seaplane Splash-In made big waves Friday, as seaplanes landed on Clear Lake and taxied into town for this year's event.
From late morning until sundown land-based aircraft were landing at Lampson Field at a rate of four per hour.
The first plane to splash into Lakeport arrived at just after 11 a.m., a perfectly restored 1949 Piper owned by Presten's Aero Photo Service that is used for air-to-air photography.
By 2 p.m. 15 airplanes had ramped out and were parked for public display on the ball field at Natural High School.
As expected, several of the aircraft from last year's event were on hand, including the world's only registered Piper Apache on floats.
Despite this week's change in the weather, the fun is expected to go on as planned throughout the weekend.
