    Subject: OT: Anything to do in New York?
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: michel <michel@online.no> Thank you everyone for your answers and good wishes. It is my first time in the US so I am quite excited. But my son has been several time to New York and many other places in the US. He has even twice been driving from coast to coast and I believe there are few States he hasn't seen. He loves New York and wants to share this experience with me and his father-in-law. His in-laws being old-time good friends of us makes the experience even more pleasant. I don't think I need to watch a video about NY, I'll leave it to Sebastian (my son). He will be our guide and it will be his pleasure. Aviation, science and jazz music is what interesses us and I think we'll find the trip most exciting. John, I'd love to see your model 5. I'll talk to my "guide" this evening and see how we can get to Washington DC. This sounds very exciting. I'll come back to you pretty soon. Cheers, Michel do not archive

    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Alan Blind" <alanblind@hotmail.com> Michel You can take the train from Penn Station in NY to Union Station in DC. At Union station, you can take metro subway close to where John can pick you up in Virginia. John could probably suggest the best subway stop to exit. Should be about a three hour trip, each way. Penn Station in NY is under Market Square Arena at about 34th and 6th ave, as I recall. I use to live in the NYC area and have a series V. I now live in Michigan.

That was months ago, either last fall or the beginning of the year. When asking why I haven't received my parts they say the problem is with the factory. I'm getting frustrated. Anyone else having problems getting parts? Jeff Classic IV Jeffrey Puls pulsair@mindspring.com Why Wait? Move to EarthLink.

    Subject: Leading edge extrusions
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "hausding, sid" <sidh@charter.net> For the factory reps, and the owners/builders who have installed and experimented with the results: I would like to learn as much as possible about the Mod IV leading edge extrusions, or the leading edge cuff (whatever) that came out for the Kitfox Mod IV a/c. Where on the factory website is the information, pictures and order form? What is the extrusion designed to do for the older style (Avid and Kitfox) wing? Which wing design (airfoil) is it made to compliment, or be used on? How is it aligned to the chord of the wing? Do they come with instructions? Where can one get two of these thingies? How much are they to purchase and ship? Has anyone flown their plane without, and then added and noted the difference(s), and if so, what are the differences? Does anyone out there have two for sale...................? What length do they come in? Do they have to be cloth covered to work with the planform? Can anybody help me with this? Will anybody help me with this? Help? Sid

    Subject: Re: Leading edge extrusions
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Paul Seehafer" <av8rps@tznet.com> Hi Sid: I am going to try and find the letter that I have from Mr. Ribblet that redesigned the Kitfox wing on the IV (although off the top of my head, I don't remember what file I put it in. So bear with me if it takes a while). It explains all of the aerodynamic questions you have. My recollection of what is there is that adding it to a standard high lift Avid or Kitfox airfoil will not work as well as the center of lift is changed and it requires a different airfoil shape on the bottom of the wing to make it truly effective. I've always wondered about some of that myself, that's why I investigated it a long time ago. However, I am a firm believer that the older high lift airfoil is a lot more capable than people give it credit for. I flew the Avid Magnum prototype with Jim Raeder back in the mid-90's. It had little or no trouble doing 125 mph on floats! And a good friend of mine that flies a Magnum on floats using a Borer (mega climb - S.T.O.L.) prop on it can pretty easily fly next to my Lake at 115 mph. And he even has his floats rigged so the wing is in a very high incidence attitude on the water, making the floats a negative incidence (Major Drag!) in the air. So, he could easily go faster by just switching props and readjusting float rigging (but he just loves those 10 second water takeoffs at 1850 lbs along with his 1500+ fpm climb). So I wonder if horsepower isn't the limiting factor more than the wing? Over the years I've heard many people say the high lift Stol airfoil just won't go more than a hundred, but the Magnum proves that wrong. I also have some info on using vortex generators on the bottom of the Avid stol wing to do some of what is done with that leading edge extrusion. I'll send that to you also. Also, check out the website www.rlsa.com for the Eurofox, it is essentially an Avid C-model that has been converted to aluminum ribs along with the new airfoil and leading edge extrusions. If you look under the construction photos you will see the wing prior to covering. Pretty interesting, plus it might help you to see some of that leading edge install. Hey, how did you like the bikini clad beauties lounging on the Lake amphib? Are you wanting a seaplane yet?? <grin> Paul Seehafer Central Wisconsin ----- Original Message ----- From: "hausding, sid" <sidh@charter.net> Subject: Kitfox-List: Leading edge extrusions > --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "hausding, sid" <sidh@charter.net> > > For the factory reps, and the owners/builders who have installed and > experimented with the results: > > I would like to learn as much as possible about the Mod IV leading edge > extrusions, or the leading edge cuff (whatever) that came out for the Kitfox > Mod IV a/c. > > Where on the factory website is the information, pictures and order form? > What is the extrusion designed to do for the older style (Avid and Kitfox) > wing? > Which wing design (airfoil) is it made to compliment, or be used on? > How is it aligned to the chord of the wing? > Do they come with instructions? > Where can one get two of these thingies? > How much are they to purchase and ship? > Has anyone flown their plane without, and then added and noted the > difference(s), and if so, what are the differences? > Does anyone out there have two for sale...................? > What length do they come in? > Do they have to be cloth covered to work with the planform? > Can anybody help me with this? > Will anybody help me with this? > Help? > > Sid > >

    Subject: Re: Bing
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: RiteAngle3@aol.com In 2000 when I introduced the RiteAngle 2000 system, my tent was right next to Bing International. They were from Kansas and good guys. I don't know if they are still around, but personally I feel they are as they were very customer orientated. Sadly the RA-2000 design was not even close to be completed, as I was told and the design was dropped with many on this list waiting for about 14 months for delivery of the totally redesigned system. Thanks to those of you that had faith in my honesty and integrity we are still in business, and have systems flying worldwide~ a couple even made it to Alaska on Kitfoxes :-) Elbie EM Aviation, LLC

    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Joe" <joe@arin.k12.pa.us> I am going to try and find the letter that I have from Mr. Ribblet that redesigned the Kitfox wing on the IV +++++ I have a model 3 with the plastic leading edge extrusion. Mr. Ribblet said it would help. I have no way to know since I didn't try it first without the sharper leading edge. I might have a drawing of the placement but don't know how accurate it is. If I can be of assistance let me know. Joe
