After many years of drooling over the Kitfox aircraft and lurking on this site soaking up the combined knowledge of you all, I finally decided to make the trip to Homedale.
I experienced the warm hospitality of the Kitfox team, got the factory tour, and went for a flight in John McBean's "Yankee Bravo" in less than ideal conditions. I experienced firsthand the great handling, stability, and surprising crosswind capability in John's talented hands.
It didn't take long after that to decide to purchase an expensive Kitfox hat that happened to come with a free airplane kit.
I just wanted to say thanks to all of you for making this forum such a wealth of knowledge, and maybe soon I will be able to contribute a little myself.
Now the long wait for the kit begins.
