I have a center float (Edo) with rudder in excellent
condition that I would like to sell! It came from a 1940?
OS2. I think it was a single pylon and I would very much
like to see it preserved and perhaps reunited with an aircraft. If you know of anyone interested please give them my E-mail. I have pictures. Thanks!
