Lake Hood Seaplane Base
Lake Hood Seaplane Base (LHD) in Anchorage, Alaska, features a water runway system spanning approximately 5,000 feet, accommodating over 190 daily takeoffs and landings, making it the world's busiest seaplane base. It operates alongside a 2,200-foot-long by 75-foot-wide gravel strip (Lake Hood Strip, Z41), allowing for wheel-equipped aircraft operations in addition to floatplanes. Plane spotters can observe a wide range of aircraft, from classic Piper Super Cubs to modern De Havilland Otters, as they navigate the aerodynamically challenging transition from water to air amid Alaska's rugged and stunning landscapes.
Lake Hood Seaplane Base (LHD) has a rolling webcam with sound, streaming live video of seaplane takeoffs, landings, and taxiing. The feed captures different angles, including water operations and the adjacent gravel runway (Z41). The live feed helps pilots check weather conditions and allows plane spotters to watch the air traffic.
