Default RE: Kangke Rearwin Speedster

Not looking for light so much as function and appearance. I like the Sullivan skylites. They come with an aluminum hub that looks suprisingly realistic, and a rubber tire. Work very well and last a long time. As to the pilot, I usually use Williams Bros. pilots. They are pretty cheap and SWMBO (she who must be obeyed) paints them up for me. I am going to put a floor in the cockpit to hide the radio stuff and sit the pilot on top of the floor. It will have a hinge so I can lift it up for checks/maintenance, and a seat back and dash board as well.

I am kinda considering taking this plane to the Joe Nall this year so I want it to look pretty good. That kinda hinges on wether or not I can find floats for it that look right and are sized correctly.
