    Default Kitfox trailers like a champ!!!

    So I finally trailered my (new to me) Series 7 with nosewheel home from Denver Colorado to Houston Texas (1200 miles).

    I trailered it on a tandem axle 7 by 18 open steel deck car hauler. We put it on nose first with welded steel tail stand. We strapped it down at the mains and nose.

    The aircraft had a factory transportation kit and was beautifully protected and rock solid in the tow configuration.

    Let me tell you, it tows like a dream! It didn't do anything spooky.

    Now that it is home, I will do a conditional and get it back in the air. It had sat a while since the original owner/builder had lost his medical.

    I have always wanted a Kitfox and think this will be a great airplane to teach my kids to fly. I intend on swapping out the nose gear for tailwheel so the kids learn "proper" stick and rudder skills.
