    Default Spar Reinforcements

    I know this is going to sound like a stupid beginner question, and that's because it is. It's coming from a stupid beginner. The question goes like this: Is there a way to reinforce the kitfox's spars to raise the gross weight without tearing the wings apart?

    I will answer with a question of my own. Are you sure that the spar stiffeners are the weak link in the chain. The wing and strut carry throughs, lift struts, their attachments are also parts in the chain so to speak. Which one is weakest, thereby limiting the gross weight? What model Kitfox do you have, and what spar stiffener is in place now? JImChuk
