Re: Aviation Design Turbo Beaver on floats Surprising how many people at Sushwap didn't know that there was a round tail modified Turbo Beaver for real. Have several pictures of full size that were converted with the "weird" front cowl , if you want to call it that. First pic is full size down in Florida and the second in flight is the AD Boss beaver still in progress of being finished. Flown at Sushwap Fall Classic .Tail wheel on, but water rudders in retract position after takeoff. No spray rails needed , nor stab winglets or subfin's required ;as it flies just fine without although next time the tail wheel will be removed. Gotta get me some spinners installed also, but working on that. |

Re: Aviation Design Turbo Beaver on floats Actually, the Beavers stole the show at this event. Roger's was phenomenal as well. Loved the unusual Black/Yellow/White |
