    Default Kitfox 4 Crosswind Landing

    Landing on a gusty day and getting my "sea legs" back after 16 years of not flying :-)

    Getting better at using my GoPro5. Please feel free to offer suggestions.

    doesn't look like you were away from flying for 16 years for fear of landing

    now go see if you can wear out the fabric, or take the engine to tbo

    bet your friends noticed that **it eating grin you were wearing all of a sudden

    cheers

    Thank you. I will do a brief "walk around" to share the details. Hard to imagine I built this without internet help like we have today. I really appreciate all the great posts on this site!
