What happened the Kitfox gathering that was supposed to happen at  First Flight and Campbell Field last weekend?  A couple of us flew to  Campbell Field for soup on Sunday but there were no other  Kitfoxes.

I had to bail out of the whole trip due to having the flu or some  

other bug, but I never saw a post about "how much fun it was...blah,  

blah, blah" from any of the participants...what about it guys?

Sorry about the late report. I had a great time at Kitty Hawk. We had three late cancellations (all for really good reasons) so the turn out was kind of light. 



Duke Maxwell from Dexter, GA showed up in N981MS. It's a beautiful model 5 with an IO240. John King from Warrenton, VA brought his award winning, 912S powered model 5. His airplane gets my vote for most beautiful Kitfox on the planet. 



I was last to arrive around 3pm in 824KF. We all took turns admiring each other's airplane for a while before checking into the hotels followed by an evening of good food and great storytelling. John capped the night by sharing pictures of his last Kitfox gathering in the Bahamas!



Unfortunately, I couldn't make the second gathering at Campbell Field. I started my trip with some moderate back pain from a recent injury that was really smarting by the end of my 450 mile trip to Kitty Hawk so I decided to cut my trip short and head for home Sunday morning.



Here's a link to a picture of the three Kitfoxes with the Write Monument in the background. I'll post more pictures soon.

Luis,  you ever fly over to triple tree?  I have been flying RC there since 

it opened several years ago. I am now into my kitfox III. We fly into 

Laurens and drive there during the big RC fly-in.  They say that when 2 

airplanes fly into Laurens, its an airshow!

I've often wondered about visiting Tipple Tree but it's marked as a private airstip on the charts and I understand that they mostly fly R/C aiplanes out there so I've never felt like it would be appropriate. They had a fly-in recently but I was not able to make it that weekend.



I know what you mean about Laurens but Hammerhead Aeronautical opened a repair shop in the main hangar recently and it's been bustling ever since.
