    Thumbs up Picking up my Speedster this weekend!

    First I want to say thanks to the great folks that reside here on this forum. The outstanding support and wealth of knowledge that exists here has certainly played a major role in me wanting to join your ranks - and now as a Kitfox owner!

    On to the fun stuff...

    If the weather cooperates, it looks like I will be picking up my Speedster this weekend. Kitfoxnick was nice enough to volunteer to help me fly it home.

    The trip starts in Springdale, AR and ends in Allentown, PA. The plan is to spend the night in Ohio along the way and break it up over two days.

    I'm sure it will be quite an adventure.

    -Jason

    Congrats on your plane, the adventure begins. The first long Cross country can be an experience. I hope the weather cooperates.

    Great Adventure Jason. Nick is the man to help out like that. As Steve from Huntsville, Ut. said, them ain't mountains. Having lived in N.J. all my life, never really say any real mountains until I flew to Alaska last year. Mountains out west are indeed mountains. Steve- You have the right to brag.
    Great job Jason and thanks for sharing the photos. -Tom , N.J.
