The Wings

The wing kit was just delivered at the end of February 2014.  The kit has been inventoried, however, we will not start it until the empennage has been completed, perhaps the end of March 2014

Kit Prices and Lead Times

The Wing Kit has arrived!

We ordered the wing kit in November 2013 and delayed it for 30 days because we weren't far enough along on the empennage to justify the wing kit yet.  We  rescheduled for delivery at end of January.  News Flash: the wing kit was delivered 2/14/2014

The bad news, the parts box was delivered upside down. The good news is that even though the parts were shifted, they were still ok.  Van's managed another excellent job of packing and taping, but will still hate the use of the duck tape to strap everything down,  I don't know if there is a better way, but it is a PITA to get the parts out without ripping the blue protective coating off the skins, or bending something.
