| That is as pretty a model airplane as I have ever seen. You add a new definition to clean. What a superb creation!! |

| Very well done! Love the rigging and the anti-slip on the top of the floats. It's the small details that make the difference! This reminds me of the Cessna 206 on floats I flew in last week in Alaska on a fishing trip! Nice! |

| David, thank you for your generous appraisal of my Aeronca project.
My efforts are only a reflection of what I have learned from you and the other talented modelers here. Thank you for sharing your work and providing inspiration / motivation to us all. |

| Edtherenderman, I had Alaska and the PNW in mind for this project from the outset. I just love bush planes and the idea of flying in remote wildernesses where only a lake, river or inlet is required for operation.
Thank you for your kind remarks! |

| I was a Technical Instructor for a couple of years during my 20 year tour in the Air Force. They told us to teach the students correctly because we might someday be working for them. :-) |

| a sound approach if I ever heard one - what good is accumulated knowledge if it is hoarded and never shared?
