CopperState 2020 is in the books. Weather was pretty good with cool mornings and mostly light winds. When the sun had time to rise and warm things up a little, jackets could come off.
Traffic by the Kitfox booth was brisk with no let up in enthusiasm for our great aircraft’s desirability.

Great to spend time with John and Debra again and talk with all the folks of like mind.😀

A big congrats to a new member of our Kitfox community and future Kitfox builder and flyer on filling out an order form and putting down a deposit on his aviation dream. I’m sure we’ll hear from him sometime in the future. Always exciting to see that process. I have no doubt there will be more examples of this happy occasion repeated soon as a result of this weekend’s activity.

Thanks to all who took time to stop and visit and all the kind comments about the “Monarch butterfly” Kitfox owned by Steve and Caroline and all the nice comments about my Model 7 SS. We hope they inspire others to pursue their Kitfox ownership. We had several local Kitfox owners fly in for one day or partial days attendance. Missed my chance to get photos on those aircraft. Apologies for that. The booth was pretty busy. Found a quiet moment to snap a photo of both.

I had a few brief chances to spend a little time with our TeamKitfox.com site sponsors. Thanks to AeroLEDs, Dynon Avionics, California Power Systems and of course Kitfox Aircraft for sponsoring our site and keeping it free for all our members to access and for supporting great fly-ins like CopperState.


Thanks to my brother Tom and sister-in-law Monica for accommodations and incredible meals at their airpark home in Salome, AZ during the show. What a nice way to start and end your day with a 35 minute Kitfox flight traveling to and from the fly-in. The scenery wasn’t bad either.

Oshkosh is next for me. Hope to see many of you there this summer. Time flies so make arrangements soon. Fly safe.
