Some may say skeptical. Only because as much as we love our planes, others love our wallets. I do not see why we should buy a new set of floats (you already paid for the first set). It would seam very simple to just: a> ROTAX/Lockwood create an online form to be filled out and issue either a cash credit, written check or ship you new floats. Or... b> ROTAX/Lockwood should accept a simple letter from those affected along with the old style float and send out a new floats. Why should we have to BUY a new set and then WAIT for them to credit us! If it is not in writing it does not exist. Perry Mason 101.

Have had many issues since rebuild of pl ane and issues with 912ULS. Just a FYI for float issue. Rotax SB-912-065-R1, Material Info-2.2, covers R otax paying for all required to test but doesn't indicate about paying upfro nt or refund later. Will try to get more involved with forum as time permits. Good luck, Alan Sent from my iPad > On Nov 29, 2014, at 12:53 PM, FLYaDIVE wrote: > > Rich: > > I am very cautious... Some may say skeptical.
