George, I can't believe you missed this post. There are even pictures of supper cubs doing it.
Still, it is SOOoooo Kwel!
Would you like to try it in your RV?
I think I will pass on this one.

I've been told that in some places spray pilots will do that to wash off their airplanes.
Hmmm.... Wonder if it would wash off a C150..... 
I think I'll let somebody else try it... |

I have a friend who used to do it on the Nile river when he had a cropdusting contract in North Africa. He tells me the trick is to make sure the brakes are full on so that the tyre aquaplanes on the water. |
