My "scrap" 912uls

[napierm]

Out of curiosity, does your speedster have short wings?

I have a part of short wings from a speedster that could be covered and flown. I do want to replace the tanks at least. Also have a pair of 3 wings that could be taken apart and rebuilt as 4 wings. A lot of work and some $$. Can make the ribs, attachments, etc. But would need tanks, flapperons, leading edge, hardware.

Honestly the plane is just about as fast and certainly more versatile with the longer wings.

But would be nice to finish it while I'm still alive.

Bought a 700 hour 912UL and did the simple Rotax prop strike check, gave it fuel and it runs like a top. Price $5101.00, but it had a Kitfox IV Speedster attached to it that had just a few bent fuselage tubes.

Yes it has the short wings. It will fly that way initially, but I may build a set of extensions for it to make it the same span as the standard Kitfox 4. I have some parts off of a wrecked Kitfox 4 wing and there is enough there to be able to make extensions.
