    Hi Kevin,

    Let me know when you have some time to head over to Colorado Springs for a tour. I would suggest taking a look at Jeremy's project as well since that way you can see two projects in different stages of construction. Jeremy only lives 15-20 minutes from my house. I hope to be in a hangar at Meadowlake airport come spring, then not too long after that be in the air.

    Eric,

    I'll make it down some weekend, but will probably be after the 1st of the year. I will send you a message several days in advance so we can find a time convenient for you.

    Thank!

    Hi Kevin,

    Sorry I haven't responded about this sooner. I'm in the Arvada area of Denver and building a 7 SS. It's really quite well along, & like Eric it is possible it will be flying this coming Summer. I've been a little overwhelmed with medical problems that my wife has, so the fox project has dragged on longer than I had expected. You're very welcome to stop by - there are several Kitfox in this area. You're way East of here... wish I could fly it over to you!

    John,

    Is your project at an airport or working on it at home? I get to Denver more often than I do the Springs.

    Thanks

    It's at home... garage, basement shop, and generally all over the house!

    Hey, just be warned. We have all been looking at John's build and if you go there you may become discouraged after seeing it for yourself. He seems to be using NASA level build criteria. LOL. We all wish we could build like him.

    John, hope your wife is going to be OK.

    And yes, John's building skills are top shelf.
