Wonderful, Galen! My little bird is getting painted so I=99ll
share pictures when I get her back. (Getting rid of the rather obnoxious
eagle head and any last traces of the previous jackass
=9Cbuilder=9D )
If you talk to Mark, one recommendation I have for the design is to add
about 3=C2=B0 of negative incidence on the horizontal stab. As it is
now with 0=C2=B0 incidence, I had to add springs to the elevator in
order to have enough trim authority with flaps down.
Also, the builders manual needs a complete revamp, of course.
Hope you had fun!

For Airventure 2024, I flew "Blanquita" from St. Augustine to Oshkosh. I
was asked to display her at the Aertomomentum / Aerotranscendent booth,
next to the tower, to show off the KIS4 aircraft.
Aerotranscendent and Aeromomentum have partnered up to put the KIS4 kit
back into production. The airplane will have some of the upgrades we,
the KIS4 community, have recommended and will be called the AXI4 due to
legal issues. Otherwise it is the exact same airplane. Mark Kettering
(Aeromomentum) has more details about the project.
While there 4 KIS owners/builders I did not know about visited the booth
and we got to chat quite a bit. I really hope this project "takes off".
