Looks like a nice trailer. I need one for a hangar. We're getting kicked off
our field for new development. Hangar nearby is $325. Ouch!

Yea, Pete, I understand. I currently pay $300/month for an unheated T hangar. But,
with the Kitfox I also store my pickup camper and 4 horse trailer in it. And,
no hangar rash because no one else is in it with me. I can get one for $200/month
but would have to put up with 4 or 5 other planes in the same hangar,
not be able to store my camper & horse trailer, and everyone has to move planes
to get in & out.

Steve,
Heard the stories about the FAA cracking down on non-aircraft stuff
in the hangar? Some really scary stuff going on out there. I sometimes
wonder if people associated with government are just loosing their minds.

Guy,
Yes, the FAA thinks they now are "hangar police", so does Homeland Security under
the guise of TSA. We have all of the above at my home airport and they do try
to wave a heavy hand. My home airport requires at least one aircraft in each
hangar, so there is lea way there. All of us pilots keep an eye out for TSA,
Homeland Security and FAA types and when found, the word circulates rapidly and
hanger doors close and lock real fast. What a load of crap we have allowed
our government to become, and at what point do good men stand up and say, "Enough"!
(Please forgive the rant. I guess I'm getting old enough I'm about ready,
and think I am still able to both start and finish a good fight)

Pete,
Walmart bought our privately owned airport and kicked us out too, which
made me buy the Kitfox and the enclosed trailer.
I Sort of thank Walmart under my breath now because of how much fun the
Kitfox has been. Funny how things turn out sometimes.
I'll post some trailer pictures and thoughts shortly. You may find
something useful in those pictures and notes.
(My Fl. Keys hanger is $6,000 per year, but the trailer stays in our yard,
no tie down or hanger rent)

Steve,
A low fly over the BLM strip showed a lot of gravel washed out leaving
cuts and ridges at angles across the surface of the strip. I passed on the
temptation to land. Too much risk, not enough skill.

If I got Photo Bucket to work, not sure, there should be about 20 photos
of the trailer used to take the Kitfox touring with tips in captions under
the pictures for anyone interested in "Seeing The USA By Chevrolet And
LSA".
As time allows I'll try to get more photos up covering scenic flying
places, tips on getting thru airports gates with a trailered plane post
911, tips on strapping and protecting the plane while towing, what to look
for and avoid in motorhomes as tow vehicles, things to do to keep costs
down while touring.
