Default RE: Cessna 182 - Wing struts?

Thanks for the compliments. It was a labor of love. For float flying, you need a little extra oomph to break the suction of the water. A 46 size bearing engine would be good for a two stroke, but if you really want to pull her good, a Saito 82 would kick butt. I have two of them and they are real powerhouses, and lighter than the 72.
