I just pulled this kit out of my storage of 25 years. (Ya, it got wet, but zero damage, other then staining.)I bought it framed up, and when I started to check it out, I realized the plansare for a smaller Cirrus Moth, and built differently. Can anyone tell me who's kit it is? So that I could try to find some things out to finish it, like mounting, and rigging the wings. The lower wings mount on using a tube some how,they arenon-folding I guess, but removable.And how to bend the wires for the landing gear and inner struts & tank building, etc.
The rudder is a pull-pullbelcrank that sticks out the side just above the lower wing (see slot), Theelevator pull-pullbelcrank is in a hatch on the bottom mid-rear
I have more pictures if needed,and exits out the rear side through slots precut. The complete tail assembly is removable andthe elevator is about 30" wide. The wings are 41 1/2each, making it a 88" wing span, counting the fuse which is 6" wide. The fuse is 54 1/2" longfrom the firewall back,no cowl yet.
