FOLDING THE WINGS

The hangar was a small "L" shaped hangar at the end of a row of "T" hangars. In order to push the airplane into the hangar, the wings had to be folded back (a standard feature of the Kitfox).

First the two pins at the forward spar fitting were removed. Then the flaperons were rotated to a vertical position. The wings could then be folded neatly back against the fuselage and the airplane could be pushed into the hangar.
