Feb 01, 2022 9 Horizontal Stab Close Out and Console Category: Empennage
There isn't really a plan for closing out the horizontal stab where the brace attaches on the Kitfox 7. Didn't want to leave just a hole there for the brace so I fabricated a close out using one from the Kitfox 5 as a model. Picture "HS Close Out 9" pretty much reflects how the Kitfox 5 close out would look. I added one more attachment point than the original just to hold the cover just a bit better. Also fabricated the actual cover but did not cut the hole for the brace yet as the horizontal stab moves from trimming and I have not assessed how much movement will occur at the brace points. I also covered the side panels for the center console with the same material as I used on the console and am happy with the look.
