Wanting to make an Aquilla Fairing?

Postby Kevin777 » Mon Sep 04, 2017 9:17 pm

Hi guys,

I do composite work full time and wanting to make a fairing for an Aquilla as I've had quite a few queries now.

It would only be worthwhile for 2 or more to be made for me to justify getting the mould made and making the parts.

If anyone is interested even in other parts, spats etc let me know. Mail me on Revelationcomposites@gmail.com or call me on 082 675 6188

Kind regards

I have a mould I took off an Aquilla fairing. I was going to throw it on the rubbish dump next week. It'll need a bit of stiffening up but the shape is there. There is also a screen with it as a shape sample.If someone in the Western Cape wants it it's at Morningstar airfield.
I sometimes get confused............But i'm not sure

Plenty of inquiries concerning Aquilla fairings, plenty of suggestions, but i have yet to see a completed aftermarket fairing, photographs etc, of an item ready for a customer.
I am seriously interested, If I see one, and of good quality at a reasonable price, I am buying....

Anyone prepared to sell their fairing?

Hi guys have quite a few guys interested but need a sample fairing to make a mould of or I'd have to make a plug from scratch which will cost quite a bit more.

If there's a few serious buyers I could split the costs and get these made but would need definite orders then.

If anyone is interested please contact me and I'll make a list of all interested and take it from there.

My number is 082 675 6188

Kind regards
Kevin
