 Posted: Sat Jul 04, 2009 8:00 pm Post subject: Wing Folding |
 |
|
I am the proud owner of a "Classic Model IV" Kitfox. The plane did not come with the wing fold bracket or braces.
The other Kitfoxes that I have seen have a tab welded to the tubing on the vertical tail (Just above the h-stab) that the wing braces hook to when the wings are folded. This plane does not have these. There is a tube (currently covered with fabric) similar to the trailer hitch mount tubes on the front of the vertical stab in front of the h-stab. Is this for some other design brackets?
Does anyone have a Classic IV that they can photo showing the folded wing bracket mounts??
Thanks in advance!

Here's a photo of a Classic 4 with the wings folded. This is the right wing. The wing lock back brace in the photo has a tab on the right end with a hole for a bolt that holds both lock back braces. The bolt goes through that tube you mentioned at the lower front of the vertical fin.
