| Well i got 2 500 series Guillows kits to fly out about 50 yards. That would be somewere around 10 seconds. |

Two floats weigh 3 grams total. |

Good underside view showing the "steps" of the floats. |

Bottom view of the floats' underside. I think I will use this same Jig setup for installing the fuselage formers. |

Top view straight down the Keel center. It looks pretty straight. No need for a Chiquita banana sticker ... |

The extra long stringers were then cut to size with a razor saw, while still held secure in the Jig, and THEN the float was removed from the Jig. |

Extra long stringers are glued onto the float formers with CA glue, while the float is still secure in the jig, and left to dry. |

| Guillow's did not put the two laser cut balsa parts sheets, (one for each float), into the kit. You have to buy them separately, $3.50 each. None of the suppliers I have talked to carry the balsa float sheets, so I guess I have to order them directly from Guillow's, along with the kit then ...
Don - how was your flying this summer ? - My best was a 57 second flight with the 22" SIG "Cabinaire" and a 51 second flight with the 18" DUMAS "Air Camper". That's it !! LOL |

| Don - my inspiration for trying to build a rubber powered float plane was this 36 second video of John Cooper flying his Howard Littman designed 24" Guillow BEAVER floatplane which flies perfectly and actually lands perfectly smoothly on the gym floor with floats ... https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=JOHN+COOPER+GUILLOW+BEAVER+FLIGHT&&view=detail&mid=69CA2D956F037C00EFD669CA2D956F037C00EFD6&FORM=VRDGAR |
