I really like it, it is going on my plane if your ok with it. I have a painter here who can put it on in a snap! We should have a squadron of "Mean Foxes".
For the first of the IO-540 powered Foxes...
I kinda like this one, too…
AV8R3400 that second one is really great!

Yeah, I really like that one too. Kind of a tough guy and cute at the same time. Just like a Kitfox Airplane.
Hmmmm -
I think I like the current, user-friendly/cuddly, corporate logo as is; it certainly seems to speak better of the aggregate Team Kitfox membership's mentality than the Team Edward/Team Jacob look!
That said, coming from a military background where we named our planes and even got to indulge in nose art again for a while during/after Gulf War I, (it was in all the papers...) I think individual artwork on aircraft to be every bit as important as the basic paint job and encourage folks to so indulge!
Here's my personal logo; "Dusty D. Fox," which I originally drew as a proposed logo for the Desert Fox Squadron but wound up using it on my bird alone.
"E.T."
I remember that war, I was a helo mechanic in the Marines! I like your fox, he's got style.
Dusty looks great E.T. ...first I have seen him. Nose art seems to be a lost art and it would be great to see more!

Wow guys!
I thought I was the only one thinking of a different logo but to get this much response is just awesome.
I really like the two full color images that Av8r3400 posted earlier. Would make great noseart.
I'm exited to get my new logo embroidered on some new seats and maybe a decal for the tail or nose.
Who knows, maybe Kitfox might take this enthusiasm to create their "Next Generation" mascot/logo especially considering how well the S7 Super Sport is being received.
It's a huge compliment to see other companies almost directly take the design and then tweak it as they see the need. The Highlander and SuperSTOL can both trace their lineage to the Kitfox/Avid. I would like to see Kitfox continue the development of the airplane and their marketing as well, which I assume they are doing. It's a great plane and awesome commmunity.. ya I ramble but I just got home from the first real flight of my KF-IV with the Rotax 670, wow!
Fly Safe!
