In my part of the woods, a Kitfox on floats is pretty worthless...some big bush tires is the ticket down here.



I would love to do some float flying with my fox though...lake hopping and fishing would be great!

Beautiful airplane Jeff.  One of the nicest IVs I've seen!

Here's mine.  One of these days I'll finish the trim.

Thanks Jeff and yes, that's Mikado International at the end of my farm.

Housing is a bargain in MI right now.

Actually with the Michigan economy in the sewer I've been looking at buying

a weekend/summer home in Michigan since the prices are good over there

right now.

Dave,

         What an incredible image. I think you should consider 

sending that one in to EAA. You'll win their monthly photo contest for sure.

Great idea but I can't take credit for that picture.  While I'm deployed a bud of mine is keeping her in his hangar and flying her to keep the engine and airframe from wasting away in storage.  As you can see, he got the better end of the deal.
