    I have been told (for tail daggers) to move the Front wheels forward 6”. The source was a highly respected person. Any thoughts on that?

    I know this is an old post, and Airedale is no longer a thing, but is "Brett" on this forum somewhere? I am looking for some advice and heard he was a pretty crafty guy.

    Hello. Any updated pictures to the stretch? I am looking into doing a very similar mod to my MKIV. What are your thoughts on whether or not you may be Losing structural integrity in performing  the stretch mod? That is what I am fighting with in my mind.

    Thanks everyone! I don’t think I will buy it. I can get a good deal on a Just Aircraft, and I think they are pretty well refined planes.

    Thanks Allen. Do you think there is a price where one would say "at that price, buy it you cant lose" I know $8500 is certainly not that price.

    Thanks brother. I thought of a low offer just to see if there is a point where it might be worth it, but we’ll see. Maybe $5k??? I am not sure. I have my reservations.

    Thank you Jim. Yes the mixer bothers me. It is not Avid, rather, it is a used Kitfox system.   I don’t know if you know this, but you tried to contact this guy before when he was selling an Avid in Reno. The price was $5k at the time. 
     
    On another note, if I strike a deal with this guy, where dan I get parts? I know I would need a lot, and I don’t want to buy “less than safe” parts. I am trying to count the cost and see if this is worth it. Thanks. 
     
    By by the way, are you and YammaFox the only ones on this forum? I never see a lot of dialogue.

    Seems like a lot of money for a kit with a lot of missing parts. Most parts are used and no paperwork. What do you think this thing is worth?

  25. Supermotive added a post in a topic About to buy this MK4... your advice please!   

    How does this thing look? It seems there is a lot missing for $8500. I think he may have been selling it for $5000 a couple years back in Reno. There is no serial number anywhere. A lot of the parts seem used. There is some surface rust in corners. I know this thing was outside for some time. I don’t mind a project but I do not want to get burnt.  Thoughts?
