CF-HLU Cessna
180 (c/n 31037)
The Cessna 180 "sat well" on floats. I
assume this aircraft is sitting on a dolly, although in truth,
EDO floats were so strong that they could, in a
push, be landed on the grass, without totalling them
out. Mind
you, even in those days a set of floats like this did not come
cheap.
This pair probably
set
the owner back 15 big ones. Anyway, this aircraft
went on to serve with North Coast Air
Services out of Prince
Rupert, BC, but I am not sure if they were the owner
when I shot this image
at Vancouver in 1960.
