tillmanr Posted February 20 Posted February 20 There is a Kitfox forum with a large membership. A great resource.
Lyndon Posted February 20 Author Posted February 20 I think there is a two or three new ones in Australia. Should be a fun build and nice to fly for a few years Lyndon

tillmanr Posted February 21 Posted February 21 That is the forum I joined 15 years ago and gained a lot of knowledge from the community. Sadly no longer a Kitfox owner.

skippydiesel Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Hi Red, I have been a member of The Rotax Owner Forum for several years. How does Kitfox compare, for engine information?😈
tillmanr Posted February 23 Posted February 23 rotax- owner.com is very good and will help you keep up with improvements. I referred to the site often when I flew my Foxbat. This site was my preferred option for Rotax enquiries whereas the Kitfox site was directly involved with the airframe and less so for the engine side. Still helpful though. 2

Lyndon Posted March 1 Author Posted March 1 (edited) The Kitfox is about to ship. Wednesday from Idaho to San Francisco. So by the end of next week it will be waiting for a LCL in San Francisco onto Adelaide. Hopefully late May early June it will arrive in Port Adelaide. Ordered September 2024 with a two year wait time for these aircraft. I'm thinking they like the sound of the long wait, but in reality its pretty much straight away for a build slot. Thanks Lyndon PS. Is this the right place to update my build. ??? Edited March 1 by Lyndon 4 1
Blueadventures Posted March 1 Posted March 1 It is the right place; maybe ask moderator to alter the title with "by Lyndon" or something similar.
Lyndon Posted Thursday at 02:10 AM Author Posted Thursday at 02:10 AM Box shipped Tuesday and has arrived in Richmond CA. Some prices, if anyone is thinking of importing an aircraft. The crate was $2100 USD Get the said crate to Richmond CA $2640 USD. You can do the maths at .64 cents in the dollar. Thanks Lyndon 4
