Title: More delays for the wings
Well bad news from Vans last week, the wing kit will be further delayed by another 4-6 months.... Very frustrating but they are having issues with their suppliers and especially the company that they sub-contract out the work for the main wing spars to. What are you going to do? Gotta have the spars to even begin construction of the wings. So this really throws the planning off. I thought I would begin on the wings this fall. Now it's going to be after the first of the year, at the earliest. Building in the heart of the winter isn't easy and I'm not sure how much I can accomplish for those few months assuming there are no further delays to the delivery schedule. At this point (Sept 2022) standard wing kits are running 14-18 months for delivery, fuse kits for the 8 about the same. Quickbuild kits are even worse running 2+ years right now to get. Good times!
