After an "Off Piste" moment in which a runway lamp tore off the support wheel assembly on a Classic Mono we are faced with a considerable repair on the right wing.

Does anyone have by chance a right wing lying around that they would like to sell??



Best regards

I have a whole XS here in the States for sale, but that probably won't work for you.  That said, the Classic with the outrigger wiped out is not that difficult to rebuild unless the spar has been ripped out also.  Even if the wing came aft and crushed the baggage bay Mod 52 it is not that big of a deal.  A bit tedious, many hours, a little bit of figuring, and internal foam work to reestablish the structure.  Go slow and take your time, make it all square again and it will fly like new.



Frankly, the task of adapting one wing to another Classic is nearly the same amount of time as the repair.  



Best Regards,

Thanks Bud,

I was thinking, like you, that to fit an already built wing would mean making about as much damage as the repair!

Bud and Barry.

Does it mean, that I can't simply buy and install a used wing for my XS 

without having to make serious additional works/alterations on the new wing to make it fit?

To Rowland - May i suggest sinking your "Right Wing" in Atlantic where it belongs!!



To John - It is possible I am sure, but the connections to the fuselage would all have to be removed and re-fitted in a suitable position to align the wing with the other. To get at the connection pins & sockets you would have to break into the wing to fuselage flare. And repair after.
