Well folks, you all were on the money with your help. When I got to my lake home today, I set the wing in the saddle and bolted her down and check the cg by use of front spar...cg was pretty close, just a tad tail heavy, but this was with empty tank. I leveled my bench and leveled the plane/floats and WAH LA !!! the leading edge of the wing was visibly pointing down !!!!! I put my incedence meter on and sure nuff..2.5 NEGATIVE. I as CF-DRG said and added a 3/4 shim up front under the gear and now I have right a 2 degrees positive....and it look better to the eye as well. I took it down to the lake, placed her in and fired it up and after about 40 yards of run, off the water she came.....BEAUTIFUL !!!! Did you guys see the big GRIN !! Wow, what can I say but thanks for all your assistance. I have never met someone involved in aviation that I did not like and was not willing to offer a helping hand. Also, the plane handled much better in the air as well...I was able to trim it out to level flight and not fight it like I was before. I guess the difference between the wing incidence and the float incedence was making something go aloof, as it handles fine now. Thanks again JimCasey, CF-DRG, Lamorillrever, Newc, Mogman, Charley...I sure glad I asked !!!! Happy New Year folks....good luck to you in 2007.
