If you like, contact me off list and I would be glad to scan the pages and e-mail them to you.

This engine came with an uncompleted Model IV Classic. Thank you.

Where should I put it and what diameter should the hole be? All help will be appreciated. Been flying and my VSI doesn't seem to register correctly. Am now ported under the panel inside the cockpit. Thank you Don Cravener dc91840@aol.com ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:07:33 PM PST US From: DPREMGOOD@aol.com Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: Mosler --> Kitfox-List message posted by: DPREMGOOD@aol.com Bill, a guy in Ontario, Canada has posted a Model IV with a VW2180 for sale. His number is 705 693-3546. He may have something to say.

If this is true, I know of a local pilot with a Mosler in his N3 Pup, and it barely has enough power to fly it. He had to remove it and go with a Rotax. I'd be afraid to even think of using one in a Kitfox.

It will have the instructions and measurements with it. I concur with John 100% A static in the wrong place is much worse than having it open inside the fuselage, ask my friend who had an airspeed which would not get below 80 in flight till he got static port location squared away. He flew the AOA for several hours, had a slight ripple in the skin ahead of the port and created a low pressure, at stall still read 80! This aircraft stalled about 45-50 Elbie ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 07:23:43 PM PST US From: Arthur Nation Subject: Kitfox-List: S7 parts --> Kitfox-List message posted by: Arthur Nation To the List: I need manufacturer part numbers for the following. I am also showing the quantity needed.. 1. Cleveland brake cylinders (4 ea). 2. Cleveland wheels, 6:00 x 6 series (2 ea). 3. Axle for Cleveland wheels (2 ea). 4. Brakes for Cleveland wheels (2 ea). Although I paid for the entire kit in August of 2002, I have yet to receive any of the above parts. Can anyone help me to get a source for these parts at less than full retail price? I alsoneed the main gear (Grove) and a Rotax 912S ( both of which were paid for in August of 2002).

I'm bought a quick-build Kitfox Sport in November of 2002. So much for the quick-build! I'm also missing the same parts (although I haven't ordered the 912S yet. I'll buy that direct from Kodiak Rotax). Did you get your exhaust and engine mount yet? Those are also on my back-order list. Is it normal to wait this long for parts from Skystar?
