I think he might have done that, Deke, but not sure.
Hey, are you going to Ojibwa tomorrow? PIC's eat free...steak for
b'fast....and it's a great little grass strip. Just right for
Kitfoxes....no matter what the first 4 letters of their engines may
be.....unless it ends with an "x" that is. : )

That is not good news, Dan. I'm sorry to hear about it, but it
seems a familiar story. Other than web site hype I found it
difficult to find much "user" information about this engine. Looks
nice, with lots of computer generated photos on the web site.
Maybe a trip to Edgewater FL to have a close look at the factory
might glean some information? Good luck and please keep us all
posted on your progress.
