    From: "Jim Feldmann" <feldesign@earthlink.net>
    Glenn: I think we know what you meant, but there is a lot of confusion here (and everywhere, it seems) concerning the LSA/Sport Pilot rules. Let's try and keep the jargon straight. There is no such thing as a Kitfox ELSA. An ESLA is an airplane built from a kit that produces an EXACT copy of the equivalent factory-built SLSA. Kitfox Aircraft just introduced it's first SLSA (for $84,000+) and may in the future bring out an ESLA based on it, but so far all Kitfoxes are Experimental-Amateur Built. I assume that the reason you asked about ELSA Kitfoxes is because you are looking for a Sport Pilot legal airplane. A Sport Pilot can legally fly any airplane (LSA, Experimental, Type Certificated, or Ultralight) that does not exceed the limitations on the Sport Pilot credential. Model IV and earlier Kitfoxes without cockpit adjustable props are Sport Pilot legal, but any later series Kitfox is not, because the gross weight is too high. (Unless the builder had the foresight to certify the airplane at 1320# gross weight. A thorough check of the FAA records would be necessary to prove that.) -------- Jim Feldmann, 3rd owner 1994 Kitfox IV Speedster / 912 Working on my Sport Pilot Certificate Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=255662#255662

    I had cause to remove the seat in my KF 3, (total airfrme hours around 600) and found the pilot's seat belt badly worn where it passes through the sea t pan. -It has actually cut pretty well -half way through. The damage c ould not be seen from above, and had gone unnoticed as its very hard to see under the seat without removing it. Photo attached. Mike Laundy KF 3, Rotax 582England=0A=0A=0A

    Michael, Do you think that much damage could happen in a year. I always hated the chore, but the seat came out every year as I did the annual condition inspection. This is good info as it is one of the many maintenance issues that was not on my checklist.

    All- "Wired Magazine" visited Oshkosh and posted an online article on July 30th about the high-volume of traffic that the ATC handles during the show. Guess what showed up in their lead-in photo? I know some of you will recognize the plane - it's very distinctive...
