Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony

competitors families work often gets little no recognition salute Greg help Nats Float Hull read considerable interest Ed Westwoods excellent article Float Hull Design June 1994 issue Its right 70s Weldon Dolgoff Mike Dailey decided develop practical flying boat intended kitted wasnt lot reference data days researched everything could find much unfortunately contradictory Weldon practical float-flying experience after many late night discussion sessions decided foam/balsa/fiberglass design built two test models spent next several months filming water air using motion picture camera before cameorders making continual changes until got what wanted final version airplane worked itself very quickly over hump unaided smooth water rotated exactly like landplane surprisingly its configuration matched very closely criteria presented Eds article Particularly troublesome tip float design Everything came up tradeoffs What finally settled very fat symmetrical airfoil section float flat sides about four inches wide set high angle attack lower trailing surface parallel hull surface just ahead step floats mounted wing exactly like landing gear landplane using A2 music wire hardwood gear blocks foam wing provided excellent shock absorbing dont recall ever structural failure short hard crash oh yeah did own.Id like say test wasnt floats themselves foam cores covered 1/16 balsa glassed worked quite well airplane successfully flown occasion whitecaps using style tip float also found tip floats should set too far out wing case 60% 70% half-span out fuselage about right higher planing speeds float too far out wing contacted waterno matter lightlythe aircraft could skew abruptly encountered disturbance water happens puts lot stress wing structure say nothing unnerving pilot last comment. flat bottom mono hulls tend much stable laterally plane hulls deadrise thus have significantly less need use tip floats water speed increases other things being equal Hopefully Eds article will encourage modelers try float flying Its whole new experience just lot fun Just dont go flying boat some sort retrieve airplane engine quits unexpectedly Unfortunately tested too Tony
