I think there were 4 float conversions altogether, done by Folland aircraft at Hamble. This is basically a Mk IX & others were Mk V. They were tested but never saw action.

ill send you plans ASAP TLUK. :D also the spit floatplane was made to protect merchent ships from subs/planes
the float let there be air cover when the  Royal Navy couldnt spare a carrier. Also the US navy also did the same to wildcalts.
