    I have not hugged my fox for a while. I am finding no place to put the fox in colorado.. seems everyone has a plane but no one flys. thinking i will build a trailer for it. should have done that some time ago.
    I will live my flying life through you for now.. :-)

    Good story Steve. Felt very familiar from several experiences past. The Kitfox is very capable in crosswinds that thwart larger craft.


    P.S. - Shout out to John. Hey John. Long time no talk.
