Jim you lucky dog! I wanted that Kitfox badly, just didn't have a
place to store it. I'm glad it's in interested hands, though. Welcome
to the Dark Side. (And proud of it!)

It'll only be the Dark Side if he doesn't put a Jabiru in it. : )

Thanks Lynn and everyone else for the replys to my question. As far as the engine goes, I'm really not sure. The Jabiru in my Avid MK IV doesn't get me off the ground as fast as the 582 did, (a concern with my short strip with trees on the end) but I have picked up quite a bit on cruise speed. I guess I still am not happy with the fixed pitch short wood prop compared to a ground adjustable 72" or so. I would like to look in the direction of a 80 HP 912, but I'm in no rush. If I'm patient, and in no rush, a good deal will come along, just like the Kitfox 4 did. Thanks again to all, Jim Chuk Avids, Kitfox 4 Mn

When you get that 912 your looking for I would be glad to buy the Jabiru from you if your price fits my budget

Sorry, but I don't think I'll be selling the Jabiru. I was thinking about a 912 for the new Kitfox project I bought. Most likley the Jairu will stay in the Avid. Jim Chuk Avids Kitfox 4 Mn
