This airframe was built up from a raw Velocity kit by me and Hangar 18 with
no Velocity factory quick build options, including the flying surfaces. The
build includes the usual Malcolm Collier Hangar 18 features like flush
window installation, and precise bulkhead, gear, and keel installation. The
top is on, the Elite doors are mechanically complete, mounted, and
functional (and they fit perfectly). The canard/elevator assembly is
complete in white epoxy primer. The lower fuel strakes have been attached &
the fuel cells built, plumbed, and coated with fuel-proof epoxy, but the
upper strake is still loose to allow inspection. The fuselage has the
landing gear fully installed and can be rolled around. The control system &
speed brake assembly in the keel are installed, some linkage work on the
aft keel is left until the right time to do. The instrument panel has been
fitted & mounting flanges are in place, but the panel has no holes. The
rear cabin roof and firewall are whole, ready for a choice of engine and
appropriate cooling ducts.

 Rather than list all the structural work done, here’s what’s left to do
structurally. Bond the upper strakes on. Cut the strake leading edges free
& attach them to the doors. Install the front & rear carbon beams and roof
reinforcement. Finish out the baggage strakes. Install the reinforcements
aft & outboard of the fuel cells inside the strakes. That’s all.

 Fairing work completed includes the cowlings, wheel pants & intersection
fairings, & canard tips. Fairing work left to be completed is lower
winglets and strake leading edges on doors.

 Control work left to be completed is hanging the ailerons & rudders, &
connecting the remaining control system components.

 The canard cover has been equipped with a piano hinge system to secure it,
and there are weatherproofing flanges to keep the nose dry. The canard has
been modified for landing lights at both canard tips. A mold to make the
plexiglass covers is included.
 The wings have been modified so that the attachment bolts install from the
lower surface, with no holes in the tops of the wings. Aftermarket fuel
cell caps that seal properly have been installed in the upper strakes.

 The only cosmetic work done is on the canard/elevator assembly, but the
rest of the plane is very straight, so cosmetic work will be at a minimum
for a composite airframe.
 The remaining kit parts are stored and present (with the exception of the
lower winglets). This includes the seats & rails, trim motors, control
cables & linkages, and much more.

 As for price.....MAKE ME A REASONABLE OFFER AND WE CAN DISCUSS.
