I know that this has been done with a kitfox but am pretty sure that it has been returned to a single wing, What I am trying to figure out is how much work would it take to do the same to an Avid, Square foot of wing to Tail surface ratio and the like, I have come up with two sets of wings one fuselage and one set of flaps and am wondering if it would be worth it?Also angle of wing attack.

I've got a cheap Kitfox clone fuselage you could hang them on. Just bring a trailer and money down and pick it up.

Thanks for the offer but I already have an A or possibly B model supposedly serial number 202 that I was trying to strengthen and widen to a mark IV I got the strengthen part but It is still too narrow for two people my size, Picture small college Center and 20 years of swinging a hammer on the railroad still where a size 54 jacket with a 21 inch neck so unless I can find a mark IV or above I am afraid it would be a single seater. What I am hoping for is whatever information people might have on the Kitfox Biplane pictures if not numbers or an amphibian if I can find one.

I might be able to post a photo of how I widened my Kitfox 6 inches at the elbows - dont think it makes that much difference at the shoulders tho...These planes were made for skinny people, I guess......My friend made a single out of his because of his size....
