Attached is an AOPA article about the then newly introduced model 4 kitfox. Just remember the article is 19 years old and even more improvement's have been added to the Model 4 since. Myself I consider the model 4 to be the last of the real kitfoxes. Can you tell I'm biased? I lifted the article off another forum. -------- Tom Jones Classic IV 503 Rotax, 72 inch Two blade Warp Ellensburg, WA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=320331#320331 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/kitfox_article_aopa_1991_1_104.doc ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:44:41 AM PST US From: Aerobatics@aol.com Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: 1991 AOPA Kitfox article I agree with you! I have flown every model even the 2009 ( Test Flew Stan Albrights a few weeks ago) and they are all great but the 4 is the greatest! Dave In a message dated 11/21/2010 8:32:42 A.M.

Took my amphibs off last weekend and now i gone from a 800 fpm climb to 12 to 1400 fpm climb. feels like a rocket now but it only a Kitfox. I reported your article in full so no downloaded needed. http://rotaxaircraft.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=333 -------- Rotax Dealer, Ontario Canada http://www.cfisher.com/ http://www.kitfoxflyer.com/ http://rotaxaircraft.com/forum/ Realtime Kitfox movies to separate the internet chatter from the truth http://www.youtube.com/user/kitfoxflyer Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=320334#320334 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 10:25:38 AM PST US From: "Lowell Fitt" Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: 1991 AOPA Kitfox article Tom, Thanks for the link.

On the 582, when I reached about 12 deg, it overloaded the engine and had very poor performance. 11-11.5 was my happy spot.
