Dear KIS list members,
-
I have decided to sell my 75% finished kit.- While it was a blast working
on the project for the last 12 or so years and being a member of this-bu
ilders group, the time has come to admit that advancing age and financial o
bligations make finishing it a pipe dream.---A -lot of my project c
an be seen on Bob Reeds web site, and if you email me at:- fredorosa@gmai
l.com- I can send you the latest photos and answer any questions. I have
advertised in Trade a Plane for the next 2 issues.
I am asking $38,500.--which is less-$ than I have invested.- The hu
ndreds of hours of excellent work are free.- -The location is Venice Fl
orida,- which has a great GA airport.

My right wing has a lot of small places where fuel is seeping out of the la
minate.- For instance some of the screws that hold the aileron on-have
blue stains around them.- It's pretty clear that fuel has gotten into the
wing skin sandwich panel and is wicking through laminate and foam.- The
left wing doesn't have any fuel seeps.
-
The top right wing skin also has a lot of the weave showing through which m
ight be related to the fuel getting to the panel.
-
I'm a bit surprised since the fuel tanks have two coat of the jeffco fuel s
ealer in them.- I played around with some sandwich panel that is the same
material as the wing skin (but without fuel sealer)-and fuel soaks throu
gh the laminate and through the foam core easily.
-
Anyone have any thoughts?-- Should I worry or is this common?-

Bummer! I think Rich has recommended creating a vacuum in the tank and
applying a thin epoxy mix to the affected surface areas, the vacuum
sucks the epoxy into the voids. You should find this and other
recommendations in the archives.
