    Default Recovered Kitfox 4 wings

    Hi all, a couple of years ago, I hauled a Kitfox 4 home from Texas to northern Mn. (Thanks Pete Ohms) It's been sitting in pieces since then. Finally got to do some productive work on it over the last month or so. Recovered the wings. I liked the paint scheme so well on the Kitfox 1 I recently fixed up that I decided to go with the same colors. One of the reasons I did the wings now was a young guy (16) I know was asking if he could help me the next time I was going to cover an airplane, cause he wanted to see how it was done. I put my Avid Flyer project on hold, and did the wings so he could see how it was done. I moved these wings out of my spray booth yesterday, and moved the Avid wings in. They need the rest of the spray coats applied to them. Kitfox wings are now hung from the ceiling in the hangar, and will wait there till I finish the rest of the plane. Probably nest summer. I tried to keep track of the time, and figured I had 47 hours into the recover of the wings before I started spraying. JImChuk
