I think I need one of those mirrors.

[Iceflyer]

Yeahh the mirror is pretty good idea. Also when taxiing on ground!

I recently bought the aircraft and this flight was only my second day flying the Kitfox. I now have 22 landings in it and 3.5 hrs all accident free

I make my final approach to landing at 50 mph. Sometimes if there are other airplanes in the pattern I would like to know if they getting too close behind me.

But if you do a short approach with lets say a base to final over the numbers. Well, you can see the final slot and turn and touch down and be off the runway real quick. I think this is the safest landing, do it all the time.

I also hold 60 before the turn, after the turn I'm closer to 50 than touch down right after the turn. Very fun.

When I do a wheel landing, I go into the turn at 70, after the turn it's 60 and down on the wheels and than lower the tail.

I use no flaps. gives me great aileron control.
