Here you go!

This FAA approved process utilizing Poly-Fiber Dacron fabrics and the unique "Poly" line of finishes assures a beautiful, durable, weather-resistant cover job every time. Documented time tested results by the professionals. The Poly-Fiber Covering Process was issued Supplemental Type Certificate No. SA-1008-WE in 1965 and this number will apply to all aircraft.
Note: Formerly known as Stits covering process. Only Poly-Fiber materials may be used through the topcoat paint to comply with STC requirements. Poly-Fiber finishes are required for approval. Poly-Fiber is approved for use on most certified aircraft. To be sure, check the approved model list in the procedure manual.

This is what you want to use on a model, I have used it for years and it works great! I still have some of this from when they sold it and it was certified for aircraft use.

60" Width P/N 09-02001 $7.65 /Lineal Yd.

Keep checking eBay looking for NOSEN or AA INDUSTRIES.
I bid on 2 in the last 2 months. The first one sold for $206. I had bid $205 and lost it.
I won the second one for $221.
If you really want to win, bid low and then put in a considerably higher maximum amount that you would be actually willing to pay if it came down to it. My max bid was $310 when I got it for $221. Cowl sells separately but there are plenty of them to be had for about $20 to $25.
Best of luck. Ron

there is no selling in the forums. I would suggest posting the ad in the marketplace for better results.

I love Champs, my 1st ever ride in a civil airplane was in a champ. Was something ill never forget. I would love to see a big 100" ARF of one

keep us updated on yours, looks like it will be a nice bird

I was just talking with Big Boy Pilot and he got me thinking about this plane I have stashed. On this nose wheel version , or heck any version where are you setting the C/G? I picked this up with no plans or idea of C/G ect. Thanks guys

classicair

what model aeronca had a nose gear?

classicair

the cg for the wing and airfoil you have is 25% from the leading edge for your test flight.

Check out the Dumas 30" Aeronca Champ kit. It shows the tricycle version of the Champ.

I think it was the 7HC Champ model that had a nose wheel.

I am posting today 1-13-08 on EBay a Bud Nosen, 1/4 Scale Aeronca Champ kit. While vintage, I believe this kit is 100% complete as supplied back then and it is in its original box. Not trying to use forum as sales but instead as a means to get this kit into the correct hands. Perhaps take a look. Thanks, Gottofly1
