    Hello all. I have found a set of lightning floats and am looking for the history of them. I think they are made in Fla. They are fiberglass outside, weight is 35lbs each.      I recently bought a second Kolb, a firefly. I can't find any number on the top tube end. Is there one? Thanks for any info.

Can you post a couple of photos of the Firefly?

Herb G gave me a damaged cage from an early Firefly, it has a serial number  on an aluminum plate riveted to the side of the top tube just behind the front spar carry through.

I think that you are going to find that the only serial numbers on any of the Kolb cages will be the one that you put there. For years I used FSII thinking that the number punched into the back of the upper cage main support was a serial number. I finally realized that it merely told them which plane it was intended for. :-/
