    JF I'm guessing the wings will be folded so make sure you account for that because i think it adds a couple feet

    Like you see on the Drawing the wing will be folded, the domer window will be 10' wide to accommodate the Kitfox SS in the storage time, that will leave the floor empty to work on oder project!

    My SS7:
    A = 14' 1"
    B = 5' 1"

    These are + or - 1"

    Thank's Jim! those measures will be priceless!!

    Can someone take a picture of the ss7 of this line of sight to see how close to the ceiling can i winch up my plane.

    if you place the prop in a Y position dose the upper tip of the prop, line up with the top of the skylight and the top of the rudder

    What is the measure between the front wing attachement point and the line of sight? (approx)

    I know that will be problematic to take!!!

    Thank's in advance!!!
