Hi All....
Just trying to clarify something before fabricating rear fuselage float attach fittings for a homebuilt PA-18 - 150 seaplane. I don't yet have the floats, hence the questions.
What is the angle between the bottom of the fuselage (ie level) and the rear float struts? I believe it is 45 deg. but want to make sure prior to welding. And what is the thickness of the rear float attach struts? If anyone with an -18 on 2000 or 2200 floats could accurately measure this the next time they are near their airplane I would be very appreciative.
Thanks Kevin.
