Hi Dusty
Looks like Bill`s Europa was there. How about KFC?
I live in Canada but have flown with some of those guys when visiting NZ. Great group!
Did you get to Dargaville for their "every Saturday dinner".
Lots of fun. Beautiful country to fly in!!!
Cheers
Don

There were two Europa's SBZ and MOF which was briefly on the US register(both these aircraft fly as microlights here
I haven't met Bill yet ,I have seen KFC in action and was amazed at the performance.We missed the Dargavill dinner unfortunately,maybe next time as I am planning to organise this as a bi annual event.The South Island circumnavigation will be next year.I would like to see some international guests.

On Monday Sept 26 I put 4.8 hrs in the KitFox. I am really enjoying this new to me Bird. Here is a video of some of the flight throuh the Red Deer River Badland area. My buddy was only about 75yrds back as the camera is very wide angle. Great day.

For those of you unaware DF4 has his own version of the River Run. It's called my Favourite Mountain.

I was in the Phoenix area 2 winters ago and DF4 was kind enough to take a poor ole wingless boy for a ride. I was so impressed with the ride I made many modifications to my Model IV (AKA SuperFox) to make it more like Steve's The Wide body mod, and Arizona baggage compartment are all because of you DF4. Thanks for the ride.
BTW I just placed my order for my travel insurance so this winter I'll be back for some flying, building, n pickin n grinnin.

Sounds good Norm. Looking forward to all of that.
Sorry about the ride 2 years ago. I know it was not inexpensive but glad you got your model 4. They are great airplanes. Enjoy every flight.

Don't be sorry be happy. I already had the model IV. You just showed me how to make it better. Oh and maybe added an extra year to the build.

It was a perfect fall day for a flight to the foothills.
Great view of the moutains on the way out.

As we were flying out and chatting on a frequency our club uses we heard President ED calling and looking for a place to fly. We invited him to join us and soon his Sportstar was landing at the Forestry Strip as well. Had to clear the Bovines.
Little youtube of Ed's landing
