FAA Approves Aerocet TSO For 6750 Straight Floats

STC Is 'Nearing Completion', Company Says

The FAA has granted TSO approval to Aerocet for their 6750 straight Twin Seaplane Floats. An STC, which would allow the floats to be installed as certified on an aircraft, is also close to completion.

Aerocet has installed the 6750 straight floats onto a Quest Kodiak 100. Initial float performance results are exceptional and are demonstrating Aerocet’s signature characteristics of being quick on the step, a large “sweet spot” and are even lighter than expected.

The Aerocet 6750 model composite straight floats include unique features like strong and lightweight blends of carbon fiber materials that are designed to be tough, lightweight and eliminate the problem of corrosion and leaks inherent with aluminum. Safety is also enhanced by making the top deck flat with anti-skid molded into the float, which eases embarking and disembarking.
