Twin Otter amphib floats
Posted by snobrd13 on Saturday, June 3, 2006 11:14 AM

Hi,

   I'm looking for some close-up pictures/diagrams of the amphibious float set-up on the Twin Otter.  Have had little success on the net.  Hoping someone out there has taken some pics or knows where to point me.

Thanks,

Mike

The floats that you are looking for will most likely be Wipline floats.

Hi,

   Yes they are.  I know which number of float it is and have even accessed the Wipline online manual but they don't show a useable diagram...just the details close-up.  Thanks for your input though.  Someday I'll find one parked.
