Default RE: Cessna 177 on Floats???

They all fly great. Each one has it's own feeling mostly because of the weight and size.

The " READY " wing span 61-3/4 " WEIGHT 8 TO 8 1/2 LBS Engine 46 - 2 stroke or 52 - 4 stroke

The " Cessna " 67 " 9 to 9 -1/2 lbs 60 - 2 stroke or 91 - 4 stroke


The " Ready " Flies a bit lighter and can handle aero batics real well. It's a smaller plane and flies that way. It's a blast.

The " CESSNA " Flies a little heavy, is a larger plane and reacts a bit slower then the Ready. It is not designed for Aerobatics but can do a lot if you want to take the chance. It is one of the best float planes I have flown and as far as wheeled planes it is a dream plane to fly when set up correctly .
ENJOY !!! RED
