HI again well it looks like BRANTLY never sold any helicopters with floats to any one in USA i thought that some one would have seen one land on water with floats in the past.......thanks any way.........tom

Tom, Gary Goldsbury has a Brantly 2141U that was on floats at one time, N5951x was on floats but has been exported to China & was owned by Brantly Inc. Also there is a picture of a 305 on floats with Roy Orr as pilot & Herold J. as a passenger on the net. On Aptil 30th 2003 the Brantly factory was advertising to purchase old floats to reproduce & put back into production. Bill

Tom, I located a set of Brantly floats & rigging here in Pa. I'm trying to buy them & see about getting them servicable. Will let everone know what becomes of this deal. Bill
