That guy Michael or whoever is Anyone who has been on the net long enough to recall the era of the fish knows who I am, and why I don't post my last name anymore. talking about an occurrence that happened to a few SeaHawks ( I have one) and the cause was not anywhere close to the reasons he sited. Really? What cause, exactly, did I cite? All I recall stating is that portions of the wing were lost in flight. So were they or weren't they? Mine has 300 hrs and never had a problem. How many hours did the ones that had the problem have? Some of our owners have installed struts between the wings - . And you believe this fixes/prevents the problem why? FEA? Long term cycle tests? What IS the cause of the problem? I've heard a lot of conjecture, and have not repeated any of it because none of it sounded convincing. P.S. they can be insured - like the Lake and all amphibs, it's not cheap - what is today? What company will write hull coverage? Name it, please. I was not able to find one that would write hull, at any price. The Lake is expensive to insure, but it can be insured for hull. Michael |
