    Thanks everyone.   Definitely all points will be factored in.  Would have to make room in my garage to repair wings/inspect fuselage.  That is as great of a challenge.   Thanks everyone

    Thanks both of you.  Now I need to do my homework and crunch some numbers.   Can those tail ribs still be bought or is it something that is home built. The current owner suggested that tail ribs could likely be fabricated.

    Wondering if other wings are compatible?
    Hi. I am looking into an older model avid flyer. I presently don't know the model number.   I know it has a 582 grey head.  It was on floats a number of years.  The wing has the all in one wood rib that droops down as the aileron mount.  The issue is the exposed wood on the trailing edge of wing ribs is weathered and potentially needs new ribs or trailing edges.   Lets say if this avid flyer is an older model could newer wings be installed or is very model specific? I realize of course that some mods may be required.   Thanks in advance.  I guess I better find out what model the avid flyer is.

    Hello from Ontario Canada
    Hi my name is Tony.   I presently fly a Zenair CH 601 HDS taildragger, and recently bought a Chinook plus two to fill a void that I have wanted to complete on my bucket list.   The goal for me in the future is to get down to one airplane so I have joined up to learn more about Avids and Kitfox.   I know where there is a model 2 kitfox but have always thought that a model 4 would be a better fit for me as my one all around airplane.   Thanks for adding me.
