Just a question:
How are fitted the floats on a S76? I can't see them in these picture.
The S76 has four floats. One each side of the nose wheel (fitted internally) and one on the underside of each of the rear undercarriage doors. They are inflated via individual inflation bottles that cross inflate. ie each front bottle inflates half of each front float. Likewise for the rear.

I hope this answers the question adequately.

A sad day!
