Most of you will have read David's recent post about getting his 'Big Box of Kitfox Bits' - a pretty amazing journey from Homedale to Echuca in Victoria, Australia. Actually, David is building his Kitfox at Moama which is the town on the NSW side of the Murray River, which forms the border between the 2 states. Enough of the Australian geography lesson! However, it does point out that David is building at his holiday house while still living during the week in Melbourne. So, weather looking good, Gayle and I decided to visit and fly from Mt Beauty to Moama - a very pretty trip.
It was great o meet David and although he has only had the kit for a week, he has stored everything and made a systematic start to the build. I know David will make regular posts on his build so I will not steal his thunder by posting pics of his build - rather, here are a few pics of our trip out to visit him today.
They are pretty self explanatory, flying out from the mountains to the flat farming country - remember it is the end of summer here in OZ so things are pretty dry still. Note the nice airstrip Dave has nearby! (Paddock) The airfield with mountains at the back is our airstrip at Mt Beauty.
cheers
