That was hard to watch. The way they tore up that nice airplane. They should
have found one in need of new fabric to do that.

I think you are looking at a promotional sacrifice, the guy who donated and
flew the aircraft is the same gentleman that owns the Belight design. I'm
sure that plane has been re-covered back at the factory.

I was wondering what was up with that guy donating what looked like his brand new
airplane to have them tear it up like that.

Yeah, but that wasn't a registered airplane. That was a kitfox Lite
ultralight. I own and fly a Kitfox IV with a Subaru engine on it, USA
Registration Number N44CN. It's a real fun toy, gets off the ground quick
(100-150') and flies at about 95 mph., lands almost as short with a stall
speed of around 35 mph.

Looked like a new plane. Guessing it came from the factory as a loan to get
the free advertising. Bet it was back at the factory and recovered in a
month. I also fly a Subaru powered classic IV. N205AK has a stratus
conversion and about the same specs. It goes places that cessnas can only
dream of. A link to some pics on www.SportFlight.net is below

Just for the record, it isn't called a "kitfox" any longer, since
Belite bought the rights to market it...or at least that is my
understanding.
