 |
|
Greetings from the 25th Anniversary Kitfox Factory Fly-in! More than 2 dozen aircraft gathered at Homedale Municipal Airport west of Boise, Idaho this weekend to revel in all things Kitfox & Avid. Over an almost constant roar of Rotax, Jabiru, and Rotec engines, the attendees enjoyed food, fun, conversation and, of course, a lot of flying. The weather was great in Homedale although a few pilots didn't make it for fear of a weather system expected to arrive Sunday.
One Kitfox from California made a forced landing about 40 NM from Homedale but there were no injuries, damage was minimal, and the aircraft was recovered by trailer later in the day.
It seems safe to say that a good time was had by all.

Hey Stan, you really ought to get that Rotax engine looked
at....seems to be burning WAY too much oil. On the other hand, you're
probably killing off a whole bunch of those Idaho mosquitoes. : )

Kitfox Factory Fly-in – SUCCESS
Celebrating 25 years of Kitfox !!
Thank you to all that helped make the Kitfox Fly-in 2009 a great success !!
Over 35 aircraft and almost 100 people descended on S66
We have the best kit aircraft in our class and it follows with the class of the individuals that choose to make the Kitfox their aircraft of choice. With almost 5000 kits sold worldwide, it is very exciting when one gets the opportunity to view one of the earliest Kitfox’s, N85DD, to the latest kit, the S7 Super Sport and the latest development the Kitfox S-LSA joined by Dan Denney and his “Special Effects” at the same time in one place. Followed by the individuals that offer their time and expertise to aid a fellow Kitfoxer get back in the air quickly when misfortune strikes. We had Kitfox’s fly-in from Southern California, Washington, Utah, Colorado, Arizona and as far as Austin Texas. All are home safe.
Local area flights to the Owyhees were abundant and flights into Smiley Creek and Sulpher Creek are trips not to be missed. The smoked bbq food was great, the live music a pleasure and most important the Kitfox family had a great time…
Great Fun!! Great Food !! Great Flying !!
Debra & I thank you for taking the time to join us in celebrating 25 years of Kitfox !!
