Well,
Here along the front range of Colorado many pilots went to the Snow Busters
fly-in pancake breakfast in Greeley, CO. This is the first fly-in for our
area every year and we all look forward to it.
It was nice sunny day on the flight up, but while we were there a front
passed through and what did it do? You guessed it, it snowed! So much for
snow bustin. Most of us got stranded there for several hours waiting for the
front to pass through. It didn't stay long at Greeley, but it socked in the
home airport of most of us. Thanks to kitfox builder Tom Tomlin and his
local EAA chapter for hosting the breakfast. There were several local kitfox
flyers that did not show up! Shame on you guys. ;-)
Best Regards,
Cliff

Hey Cliff...that sounds like fun. Our first get together isn't until May,
but it's always a lot of fun. I havn't been for the last couple of years
(building) but I'll be there with bells on this year. Take care.

Don
Are you running the Jabiru 3300 in the Classic IV? What kind of
performance are you getting with it? Climb Rate, Cruise Speed, Fuel
Burn etc.

Hi Don. I'm flying a Jabiru 2200. It's an early ser. no. (296) but it's
been modified. It pulls like a freight train. I'm really happy with it so
far. I only have about 10 hours on it but it flys beautifully. Right now I
have a Prince P-Tip on it, a climb prop, The 2200 is only supposed to see
3300 rpm with it but I see 3700. I've modified the throttle so it stays
pretty close to 3300. it really pulls the bird along, but I still get 80~85
mph cruise with it. Last week I bought a Warp two blade to try. I think it
will be hard to beat that Prince for climb though. I'll mostly use the Warp
for cruise if it flys well. Aero-carb eh? What did you do with the 40mm
Bing? I sure would like to have one. I have the older induction system.
Steve

Steve:
Yes I am runing it on a Kitfox Classic IV.
Performance is Gooood!!!!
Climb rate is approx. 1500 ft./min.
Take-off run 250/400 ft.
Cruise speed ????????
Fuel burn 5 gal./hr.????
Haven't gotten real good numbers
yet because I had my static port under the panel.
didn't work very well. I have only 30 + hrs. on
it so far. Been havin too much fun with other
things.and not spendin enough time flyin.
Still learnin Kitfox capabilities. Take-off using some
flaps is shorter but very quick!!!!!! Will know
more later. Really like the engine so far. Very
smooth running. I pull power back for about
100 MPH cruise. Running a Sensenich wood prop.
48 x 64". Have had it up to about 130 mph.
ASI only goes to 120. Don't want to stress the
airframe or wings. Flew hands off first time. A lot
more fun than the 7ECA.
Are you planning on a Jab engine???

I would like to hang on to the Bing for awhile.
Need to see more of the throttle body first.
Working good so far, although not satisfied with the fuel
consumption. Other than that everything seems to
be working well.

Don
I am planning to run the Jabiru 3300 on my Kitfox S-6. I haven't
figured out what prop I am going to run yet. I am probably a year away
from first flight, but like everything I have heard about the Jabiru.
Please keep me posted on your performance figures.
