All,

This is a followup for my prior messages about the "barn find" XAIR.? It appears to be an early model with the engine mounted up high.??? this will be the X-Air standard or the X-Air with flaps

The owner of the land where it sits wants it moved ASAP.? He sold that portion of his ranch and wants to move the plane elsewhere.? I am concerned if it is dismantled without care it could end up in a lot worse condition than it is in now.???? they are pretty easy to dismantle, it is easy to remove the wings and the horizontal stabiliser/elevator assembly

I heard that by removing the horizontal stabilizers and a few other items that the wings can pull partly out and then fold back against the fuselage.?? not on any of the standard of flap models. It is much easier just to take the wings off because you still need to remove the exact same number of bolts

Could someone direct me to an operator's manual or instructions for accomplishing that?? It would make moving the plane and storing much better while I help him figure out what to do with it.? We may just give it to an EAA chapter as a project plane.??? avoid the liability and give it to the EAA, this is a great idea and could be your best choice

Thank you,

?????????? Rol

?

I think it would be most important to find paperwork for certification and Special Air Worthiness Certificate.

I have seen an X-Air Standard ?in the past that was never "papered up" and unfortunately I really don't want to dismantle one

?for a "miscellaneous parts / and plans" EAB program for Light Sport Aircraft, etc. ?

Maybe find a dataplate and certificates from a wrecked but not decertified X-Air?

Just my humble thoughts, legal or not is a question!
