    Subject: A Bargain For You?
    From: srud0fc02@sneakemail.com
    --> Aviation-List message posted by: srud0fc02@sneakemail.com Somebody Is Going To Get A Bargain! Been wanting to build your own plane but short on dough? Here's your chance. Selling Price $8,250. Total purchase price invested $16,500.00 Skystar Vixen Aircraft Kit (Series V) Aircraft Kit Serial # ADV-027 Tricycle gear, high wing, STOL performance, two (side-by-side) seating. Folding wings allow towing and easy storage. With purchased optional extras Quick Build Wings, Powder Coated Frame, 13 Gallon Wing Tank Kit, Antenna Mount Plate and Tool Kit included at this price. The Quick Build Wings feature (saves approximately 100 hours of construction time) all done by Skystar factory personnel. 1) Wings built to the stage of Inserts being installed 2) Diagonal Braces installed 3) Ribs installed 4) Trailing Edge installed 5) Flaperon Hanger Doublers installed 6) Top False Ribs The Powder Coated Frame is in the white stock color. Powder Coating eliminates the difficult task of properly painting the fuselage of your Vixen. It offers greatly increased durability, chemical resistance (a necessity in coastal regions where salt can ravage) and more through and uniform application because the powder coating is electronically bonded to the metal parts and then fused in an oven. Looking for the ultimate thrill and pride of accomplishment? Dream it, build it, fly it! Before making my purchase decision, I visited the Skystar facilities in Nampa, Idaho as well as their major competitors. I flew a completed example of the Vixen as well as a number of the competing aircraft. The superior responsiveness and performance of the Vixen were noticeable when flown in a close time frame comparison such as I experienced. Those experiences combined with the professionalism and the thoroughness of the engineering, design and production of the Vixen kit did it for me. This kit was shipped to me in Jan 1994 and has been stored in a facility completely sheltered from the elements. I am the original purchaser. The kit is "as delivered" to me with all parts as originally shipped. No work whatsoever has been done on this kit since it left the factory. It is exactly as the Skystar factory in Nampa produced the kit. The kit construction was never started due to a series of events that have culminated in my now needing to sell. I have a deteriorating physical health condition that makes it impossible for me to build the kit. The complete kit is stored at my home here in the midwest USA which should make for easy travel from just about anywhere in the country. The buyer must plan on picking this kit up or having a shipper come in and ship it at buyer's expense. No seller financing is available. I will accept a cashier's check, wire transfer or good, ol' cash. First person here with the money gets the kit. Looking for the perfect father /son project? Here's your opportunity. Selling Price $8,250. Looking forward to hearing from serious interested buyers. Please contact me directly at the below email address or at the phone number. Richard Young Jamesport, Missouri Phone: (660) 684-6226 (Central Time Zone) 1100 - 2200 best Email: srud0fc02@sneakemail.com Note: My decision to sell this aircraft kit in no way reflects negatively on Skystar, Kitfox, on any of their products or people. With my reluctant sale of this kit, I do not desire to take any potential customer away from Skystar who may be contemplating the purchase of a new aircraft. On the contrary I imagine that the sale of my long-stored kit will lead to additional parts sales for the Skystar product line as well as further word-of-mouth advertising from a satisfied builder. It will be far better to have this aircraft-to-be up and flying and producing enjoyment, than to be gathering dust in my garage. I have always found the people at Skystar to be completely professional and quality people in every way. My visits to the factory and the fly-ins have always been wonderful and positive experiences. I have the greatest respect and admiration for the Skystar organization and their product line. I will willingly recommend them and their aircraft to anyone who will be looking for a kit to build. That goes for now and after I have sold my kit. Skystar and Kitfox are the best in the business and have my respect and admiration.
