Grumman Albatross Question

Also posted in the Warbirds forum:

I was wondering if anyone could provide a fairly good SWAG as to the distance required for a Grumman Albatross to land on relatively smooth water (like a river). It doesn't have to be exact, just a good estimate.

Thanks.

That depends on if the runway is wet and how the braking action reports are.

It depends if you have JATO or not..............
