    Default Fox rebuild

    here's some pics of a Skyfox my sons and I are restoring. The Skyfox is an Aussie copy of the Kitfox/Avid type, we bought it from a guy who had it stored in a shed for 12 years and have done a full rebuild on it. We hope to have it flying by the January Holidays.
    cheers Mat

    Say, that's a nice paint job, and I just happen to have the same colors. You're not going to sue me if I copy it are you?

    I was looking through some of the old posts and this one amused me, " what year?", Well, not the one I was thinking of, after a lot of work and a move from one end of the country to the other I have almost finished the fox, I had some static leaks to get sorted before I could get an instrument 8 inspection and we're good to go , I mentioned the January holidays ,,not far off but the year was a mile off,,,,,,

    I've put some footage of taxi tests on utube, and it will be airborne in the next few weeks,,,definatly maybe ,,,,,, I never understood the " 90%done 90% to go " till now
    Cheers Met
