First Video and introduction!
Hey folks!
I have spoke with some of you privately but have never formerly introduced myself. I have been fortunate enough to find a really amazing Model 5 last November and have been spending a good amount of time trying to get myself comfortable with her.
I spent a good amount of time with Paul Leadabrand from Stick & Rudder getting myself familiar with the Kitfox. Needless to say, his instruction was excellent and I was able to gather a lot of information to build up my confidence.
I have previously owned a Cirrus SR-22TN and it has been an incredible journey transitioning from that to the Kitfox. For the most part, I feel that I am actually experience aviation the proper way, enjoying the scenery while flying instead of pushing buttons inside the clouds.
Here's a video I took flying with my 11 year old boy over California.

Welcome aboard Alex. Great video, thanks for sharing and that smoke system works great.:)
Spent some hours on cross country flights with that Kitfox and its builders. It is a beautifully built Kitfox. Looks like it found a good home. Good move getting some extra training with S & R.
Enjoy every flight.

Re: First Video and introduction!
Welcome, Alex! And very cool video. I had a smile on my face the whole time. It sure appears you've found the ultimate flying experience. Thanks for sharing it!
(Scott you need to do one like that with Clair:)
Re: First Video and introduction!
Welcome Alex! I agree, that smoke system is working very well. Wish I had mine finished for my boys. At least it should be done before my oldest hits 11th grade.

Re: First Video and introduction!
Awesome, Alex. I so look forward to flying my Kitfox with my grandkids (although hopefully before they are 11).
Re: First Video and introduction!
I will make a post of the smoke system so people can use as reference in the future. It is actually a simple process once one spend several hours online searching for the right equipment.

Re: First Video and introduction!
Yes do that Alex. I am interested in the details of your smoke system.
Re: First Video and introduction!
I see more wt as well as money but Im still interested as well.
Re: First Video and introduction!
Very nice presentation of your flight. How many camera's do you have mounted and are they all running at the same time, is the final video edited?
