An airplane. And if it's the right kind, he already has at least one prop.

Which is why I love flying...and that window seat.

Always wanted to be able to fly more, but I traveled by car so much I get use to the fun of the adventure. It's a trade off, but there's some fun stuff to see from down here on the ground, too. Just rarely as....awe inspiring.

Thank goodness most water spouts do not make serious landfall!

One of my friends lives right next to where that was. He was freaking out, I had to tell him water spouts aren't really that dangerous, especially when they make landfall.

They are dangerous to boats, swimmers, etc. Depending on the type, it can be dangerous when it makes landfall. Tornadic waterspouts can become a tornado if they come ashore, as they essentially are tornadoes over water.

The one from the picture is non-tornadic, as it is formed from a singular cloud and not a severe thunderstorm. They can still produce winds of up to 65mph and should not be approached.

We'll I didn't mean it that way...

They are tornadoes that form over water. While generally that is true if they make landfall they can be pretty devastating.

I know what they are, and generally when they make landfall they dissolve like this one did, or severely weaken. But yes, once in the blue moon they can walk on land for a while.
