I am waiting for my tail feather kit to get here and thinking about mods for the plane. I would really like to figure out how to carry 2 pairs of skis in/on the 8. I looked around the forums, followed the "baggage area in back" and I see a lot of speculation about tail tubes and belly pods, but no finished examples for the 8.
Can someone point me in the right direction and/or help me out with some measurements.
What is the distance from the front of the baggage area F807-1 the F-810B-1(DWG 71 in the preview plans). How wide is it at F-809-1?
The largest skis(mine) are 6ft tall, 6 inches wide at the tip and tail,9.5 inches wide at the bindings, and weigh 20lbs.
I am planning an Aerosport IO-375 with a constant speed prop, that should help with the CG issues to an extent, but I do realize CG will more likely prevent this than the physical space needed.
Thanks helping a new builder.
