    Wink First Flight!!

    Hi All, Just wanted to give thanks to all of the Kitfox family for the priceless advice. My Kitfox IV/1200 Jabiru tri-gear made it's first flight on 7-13-12 and flew great with little issues. I now have over 40 hours of flight time and having a great time! I can't believe how nice it handles.

    I'm based at Waupaca and am planing to take some trips now that I have the phase 1 completed. I would really like to come up your way sometime this winter. Do you come down to central county lunch 68C? It can be a great time.

    Thank you for your support I really enjoy this group! As many of you know the first flight of your airplane is a very special event. I would say for me it ranks close to my first solo flight, maybe even alittle better!! Good luck to all of you that are building..... don't ever give up because it's a great feeling to fly your completed project!

    WISDAN, congrats to you also,I agree that it was a better felling than to first solo. To build and fly your own aircraft is very special, something only a few of us get to do. Now on with phase one.
