Does anyone have experience flying a 135hp Super Cub on floats? If you do would you please share your thoughts. Was it under powered? Was it a good performer? Any thoughts or ideas will be appreciated.
 
135 on floats

:D Had a 1953-135 on floats and it flew great. I believe that they were Edo 1400s and a little small when heavy. I think it flew better than the later supercub I have now with 150Hp. Previously had the 1400s on a 65 hp Chief. :( Which wasn't very snappy on a hot day.
