    Question about the bubble doors. Can anyone comment on how photos come out when taken through the "bubbles" instead of a flat window? Thanks, Dave

    when I take pictures in my rv they are always bad, bunch of reflection, you name it, bad. In the kitfox, always good, no complaints.

    A friend who is a semi-professional photograher gave me a good tip: If you are using a digital SLR (not a cell phone camera) camera get a flexible lens hood for it. When taking a picture press the rubber lens hood up against the plexiglass; it will eliminate any problems with reflections. I tried it and it works.

    Sky Steve,
    I think the reason that is such a great shot is because the two planes involved are some of Kitfox History, and because we are the two old codgers that are lucky enough to fly them.

    Are you planning on attending the Kitfox Factory Flyin?

    Yes sir. This "old codger" will be there. Looking forward to flying with you again.
