    Come see these beautiful Kitfox aircraft at the Kitfox Aircraft booth at AirVenture 2023.
    A couple of them are sporting the NEW Rotax 916 engines.

    Beautiful finish to a great project, but I would have expected it after seeing Brandon's work for others.

    What a beauty!!! I got a text from Brandon last night and his comment was "Didn't think there would be that big a difference between the 915 and the 916 but wow". He was stoked at the performance.

    Brandon and Heather's beautiful workmanship was rewarded with a Bronze Lindy. Way to go guys!! Another Kitfox by Evan Brunye also won a Bronze Lindy.

    The CFI who does my BFR sent me some photos of the plane from KOSH; along with the suggestion - "So when am I going to built one!"

    What an exciting Saturday evening at the awards.
    Brandon and Heather Petersen were awarded a Bronze Lindy.
    When you get a chance to view their workmanship close up, you likely will agree with
    the judges results. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Petersen on a fantastic Kitfox.
    The bar has been raised to a new flight level.

    I'll jump on this wagon for certain!! Congrats to both Heather and Brandon for building a beautiful plane. Understand the workmanship is something to behold. Couldn't happen to a nicer couple for sure.

    Thank you ALL! We couldn't be happier with our Kitfox. It was sure nice to let Chuck ride home with us...
