    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: AlbertaIV@aol.com Don, If all seven "Bird Dogs" show up in their Kitfoxes at the Suffolk, Va. fly-in in June, we will be the only back-up, guaranteed. And if we all do a low fly-by first, we will be the entire air show. -- John King Warrenton, VA John, Start working on them and we can make it. BTW, you need to assign numbers to the Bird Dog squadron with you being BD-1. We can assemble at PHF and make the flight of Bird Dogs as a single unit to Suffolk. Don Smythe DO NOT ARCHIVE

    Subject: 90% Complete Kitfox Project Up for Sale
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Robert Ducar" <aeropup1@charter.net> To all my Kitfox friends, I am putting my Kitfox IV-1200 Project up for sale. I am currently involved in a much bigger and faster project (JSF) that will not allow me to complete my fox anytime soon. The A/C is in an advanced state of completion and is impeccably built. It is a Mod IV-1200 that has been in a temperature controlled work shop for all of its life. The builder is a Sr Materials and Process Engineer and A&P Instructor who has been in A/C design, build and certification for over 24 years. The project has been EAA tech inspected twice. This project will make someone a great plane under the new sport A/C category. I will be glad to further describe in detail the inventory list and build description when contacted off line. The following is a brief description of the project: Skystar Mod IV-1200 Warp drive 3-blade composite prop and polished spinner New Rotax 582, C-box with RK400 clutch, fitted and firewall mounted on polished firewall. Engine is mounted with all engine ancillary equipment including muffler. Top cowl has been split at the firewall to allow ease of maintance and accessibility. Engine has already been broken-in and tested on the engine test stand by Bob Robertson of Canada. Exterior is professionally covered and painted White with Red tapered fuselage stripes and upper and lower wing skin fans and Black checkerboard detail on vert stab and under horiz.stab. Everything has been pre-fitted for final assembly, all A/C fasteners. Professionally heat formed .110" Windscreen, slight gray tint all around. Radiator shroud installed Cleveland wheels and brakes, Matco pedal cylinders All new instruments and sensors( all are fitted and mounted): Grand Rapids Engine Monitoring System and sensors New Icom 760 radio- panel mount with antenna Garmin III GPS, remote antenna ELT with antenna Altimeter, Airspeed, Turn & Bank, Rate of Climb, Amp Meter, Sigtronics StereoCom intercom, multi-function control stick handle grips and AOA sensor Interior: Custom Gray/Dark Gray Upholstery with lightweight upholstered honeycomb hard panels over the back deck, Light Weight Carbon Composite seat, Carbon Composite/Cherry wood veneered instrument panel and center console, all switches and masters installed. Panel layout per A/C standards Masc.: All 4130 A/C frame and details have been primed with corrosion resistant A/C green primer and top coated with Urethane A/C top coat. All Aluminum has been prepped with corrosion resistant Phosphoric acid annodization (by tank) and primed with a corrosion resistant bond primer. All metal prep work done in process certified shops. All flight controls have been installed Removable wing tips 2-Flightcom head sets This is an easy project to complete. 99% of all parts are included to complete project. Plus a bunch of extra stuff that would you would have to buy or make. I will be posting the project with pictures on Sport Flight and Barnstormers.com in the very near future. Please pass the word around and have anybody who is interested contact me at my home e-mail. I will be asking a very fair price, it should sell quickly Thanks Bob Ducar <mailto:aeropup1@charter.net> aeropup1@charter.net

    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Roger McConnell" <rdmac@swbell.net> Bob, Sorry to here you are having to sell your Model IV. When I saw this aircraft in Dec. of '02, I thought you would surely have it flying long by now. I can personally attest to the excellent workmanship of this aircraft. Who ever is the lucky person to by it is truly getting one fine aircraft.
