Why don`t you talk to the makers. They are nice people to deal with.
Good luck Pat

Subject: Kolb-List: Conversion of Mark III to Xtra
Hello Kolb Pilots, I=99m new to Matronics. I have recently
acquired a Mark III which I had planned to restore; however I found that
the cage was bent beyond reasonable repair. What would it take to
convert the Mark III to an Xtra?
I assume I can reuse the MkIII boom, wings, tail feathers, new Rotax
582, etc. I=99m not sure about the linkages for the ailerons,
elevator, rudder, and flaps?? I also understand that the wing
angle-of-attack needs to be changed and the lift struts are different in
length. Also, not sure if MkIII gear can be reused. Any advice or
recommendations will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dee LeBlanc

prevailed...Herb

Thanks Pat, that's an obvious choice and I did that first. Just wanted
more information on details and other builder experience.
Thanks again,
