    Nice cover. Congrats. Kitfox Aircraft and Kitplanes.

    It's hard to take your eyes off a cover girl.

    Wait a minute! I didn't think a KitFox could fly with any engine that's not a Rotax! hmmmmm

    Did you note how coy they were about not talking specifics on the weight of that plane? I did. Even the Kitplanes article mentions that the Rotec is 80-100 pounds more than the Rotax. Way out on the nose, with the Rotec being just as long as the Rotax motors...

    "Stately" is right, and the cover is pure golden-age-of-aviation class! With the modestly art-deco-ish colors and fonts presented, it looks just like something off the corner news stand...February 1935...now THAT'S Classic!

    Once again, Marc Cook and Kitplanes have given our favorite brand a richly-deserved public airing; kudos again to the "heritage-edition" (sorry, Harley) Radial-Fox build team and their Bronze Lindy! WOW!
