LE DE XL on Floats?
« on: May 22, 2015, 09:21:12 AM »
Does anyone know of an 'eagle on floats? I've searched high and low and have found nothing.

Could be one lurking, but never heard of one.  


Power and weight I'm sure have been the limiting factors.  


Power may not be a concern so much any more for the single seaters.  


Perhaps yours will be the first...

Perhaps. I have ordered plans but a buddy and a I are still trying to work out the details on building space. We live in Kotzebue Alaska, 35 miles above the Arctic Circle and keeping a place heated is a challenge. He has been dabbling with a PA-12 rebuild but has lost interest and might put it away for next winter so we can have the space to build the Double Eagle. My wife begins nursing school in January after raising our 7 kiddos, so I need something to do while she lives with her nose in the books for the next 2 years; this just might be the ticket. Floats would be a lot of fun in our area.
