    Hello all. Just another pilot with a project. This Kitfox 1 came with full lotus floats and retractable gear for the floats. I’m not far from getting it on its floats again and adding the retractable gear, just working through some issues before I get it done. Looking for anyone on here that has one of these on full lotus.

    Hi Randy,

    Could you help me identify this fuselage whose owner who put it on sale tells me that it is a Mark IV Airdal / Avid +.

    This fuselage has a two-tone similarity to yours

    Best

    New to the page, and excited to be here. Looking for an Avid of my own and any info on them I can. Looking forward to picking all your brains.

    I can use help with Avid technical information and flying advise.

    First I would like information an tail structure strengthening and why this was needed in relation to the Avid 4.  Also information on safe estimated x-wind limit which I think is about 13 knots for full stick control to keep the wings level.  I am about to instruct a pre-solo student and another pilot for tail wheel.

    Also, what are the qualifications and average experience level of experimental light sport maintenance certficates, and can they sign off required yearly inspections?

    I have flown a little in the Avid 4 and an older kitfox and several other experimental airplanes, but the Avid/Kitfox have the lowest wing loading I have experienced.

    Thanks.
