    Default Kitfox Aircraft and Stick & Rudder - Sebring & Bahama Bound 2012.

    Stick & Rudder Aviation and Kifox Aircraft are departing from Boise on 1/14/2012 with 3 "Super Sport's" - bound for our display booth @ the Sebring Florida Light Sport Trade show - via the Rocky Mountain passes, deep red-rock canyons, and the warm gulf coastline - then on to exploring the white sand beaches of the Bahama's for a week. The return adventure departs about Jan 28.
    We'll attempt to pass along pictures and video clips through TeamKitfox.com or on our web sites.

    Now he is just Showing off, landing at George Bush International in Houston! That is one busy Airport, I can hear the Big Boys commenting about the Yellow SLSA Kitfox in front of them. When you Fueling up make sure you tell them your Kitfox does not use Jet fuel! I would ask them for Unlead Auto Fuel, cut the Ethenol!

    Correction: I can hear the Big Boys commenting about the M&Ms Red, Blue, & Yellow SLSA Kitfox's in front of them.

    Paul, I'm not sure what model SPOT Paul is using on the trip. I'll have to do some research on the latest SPOT offerings. Looks like it's working perfectly so far. Fun to watch the progress.

    I am going to order one of those SPOTS! That is cool to look back at where you had traveled. I also like the security of the SOS.

    Paul actually is using one of the older spots that is no longer available.. He is upgrading shortly to the spot connect

    Ask the tower for intersection departure and was forced to full length...

    As we departed... The 737's words were (with a Texas drawl)

    737-them Kitfox's..
    6KA-Yes
    737-that didn't take long
    6KA-2YB...

    John,

    It is fun watching the progress towards Florida.

    Why did y'all stop in College Station, Texas, home of the Fighting Texas Aggies?
