Default RE: Why aren't there more float plane designs for .09 engines?

I agree fully with evan-RCU about normal floats being too bulky for light planes like the old timers. I've built over 100 pairs of foam core floats and just this last week I built my first set of "slim" floats for the lighter planes. These are 42" long and would be for planes like Kadet Seniors, Telemasters, and other light planes. I think I'll do other sizes as well........Seaplane
