"My set of Gull Wing Floats arrived today, very well packaged in
excellent condition. Those floats have an excellent appearance, and now comes the 'fun' job! Thank you."

"Just wanted you to know that the lightweight Sport Commanders acquitted themselves admirably at the Northwest Seaplane Championships (Wamic, Oregon) a couple of weeks ago on my electrified Sig Kadet LT-25. All up they added 22.5 ounces to the airplane (this is the delta weight of the fuselage between the normal gear installation and the floats as flown). I ran them unpainted, with one Ernst .90 sized water rudder.

I love how smoothly they land with little of the skipping you get with flat-bottomed floats. "
