Superflite 102

[nimdave]

I am reviewing the log books of a Tripacer I am considering purchasing. The log states the aircraft was recovered with Superflite 102 system. From what I can glean online superflight makes fabrics, adhesives, fabric primer and top coats but I don't see a complete system. Unless the primer or top coat provides the UV protection. The recover was done in 1987 so whatever was being used back then. Please enlighten me

Superflite is a complete covering system that is STC'd. https://superflite.com/

I see system 7 on their web site but no mention of system 102. I know their fabric is called 102. Are you familiar with the 102 process? I get no response from the company.

I believe that was a nitrate/butyrate system back then.

Thanks that's what I wanted to know.

On the Superflite web site it say SF102 fabric is certified for use with any STCd covering system. I think I'd want something more than a statement on their web site though.

Stewart's STC says any TSO'd fabric.
