And there's always the problem with wind chill; I'd have to install an OAT to ensure against frostbite. :-o Guy Buchanan K-IV 1200 / 582 / 99.9% done, thanks mostly to Bob Ducar. Do not archive

    Subject: WOW Thanks prop response!
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "ron schick" <roncarolnikko@hotmail.com> Thanks for all of the prop offers. I still haven't purchased one yet as I'm waiting to find out the location and cost of most. It is comforting to know that fellow Fox/Avid owners can find help here when things go wrong. I got a three blade package price with freight from GSC today for $375.00 no leading edge urethane. Other complete props, with shipping to Oregon, may cost and be worth far more than that for sure. Thanks again and I'll be checking my mail. Ron N.B. OR P.S. I think there is a classified section at Sportflight our kitfox site. I might post any leftovers in my shop.
