    Talking Kitfox 5 Down Payment

    Birthday, Christmas, and Fathers Day all came today for me as I put a down payment on a very nice Kitfox 5 today. The one I finally settled on is a familiar plane in the Idaho back country, so I may have to paint "I'm not Big John" on the side of it. Anyway, I have tons of learning to do and I'm looking forward to every minute of it. First order of business will be to talk to Paul over at Stick & Rudder, and get some dual time scheduled with him or one of his instructors.

    Thanks Phil, I appreciate that. We close on our house in Mtn Home on Friday, and scheduled to close on the new house in Caldwell on the 19th, but we're hoping for sooner.


    I'm also looking forward to visiting your EAA chapter with a possibility of joining.

    Bartman, you saved me some money! Big John and I had traded a few emails last week but I took too long rolling it around my brain. Good for you!!! Congratulations to both parties.

    Ramos, thanks for dragging your feet, and letting me "swoop in" on it. Rest assured, I'll give her a good home. Thanks for the congrats.
