OREGON / KITFOX
On January 5, 2006, after
3 years and 2 months, I test flew my Kitfox Series 7.
The flight went without a flaw and the airplane flew
absolutely great. What a thrill it was after
spending over 1400 hours of building my first airplane.
I wondered if this day would ever come, but
dedication and persistance finally paid off. I now
have 165 hours of pure fun flying on it as of Dec. 2006.
Powered by a Rotax 912ULS (100 hp) and a 3 bladed
in-flight adjustable medium Ivo Prop, the takeoff roll
is about 250 feet and climbs 1000 fpm. It is
equipped basic VFR. I would encourage anyone
looking for a great STOL and fun flying airplane to
consider the Kitfox. A very special thanks to John
& Deb McBean for all of their help, and Bill Lewis who
helped me throughout the covering process.
