I currently have 940 hrs on my classic 4.  I  want to start a post listing the number of hours people have on their  foxes.  I'm not the builder of my plane but love it like I did... How many  hours can I expect out of her before a major overhaul?

Be thankful it's not a 2-stroke....

  

 Airframe time on my KF2 is 883 hours, 295 hours on my 582 which was  rebuilt after 588 original hours.

Steve I know of a 912 in a Kitfox 4 that has around 1400 hours without overhaul. The owner is experienced and is keeping a careful check on it - e.g. oil analysis, compression etc. It has also done many of its hours on long flights.
