    We were thinking of doing the Ram Falls Strip yesterday but some "Chinook" type weather made us trek east instead. Your going to love your Fox when she is done Josh.
    I know I promissed you a ride and it is coming but I am still getting comfortable with my little bird before I show her off. Let me know if you are flying this way in the near future.

    Oh don't sweat it Norm. I'm not going anywhere and I know you are busy. We will make it happen one day when it is convenient for both of us. I will for sure let you know when I am in the area. In the mean time, keep having fun!

    Things are a bit quiet on the forum just thought I would post a selection from the trip I organised to circumnavigate the North Island of New Zealand.
    we were away for 10 days, 4 stuck due to weather. There were 7 aircraft went around. 30 hours flying
    The light house is at the northern extreme of New Zealand.
    The city is Auckland, our major city

    Hi Dusty
    Looks like Bill`s Europa was there. How about KFC?
    I live in Canada but have flown with some of those guys when visiting NZ. Great group!
    Did you get to Dargaville for their "every Saturday dinner".
    Lots of fun. Beautiful country to fly in!!!
    Cheers
    Don

    There were two Europa's SBZ and MOF which was briefly on the US register(both these aircraft fly as microlights here
    I haven't met Bill yet ,I have seen KFC in action and was amazed at the performance.We missed the Dargavill dinner unfortunately,maybe next time as I am planning to organise this as a bi annual event.The South Island circumnavigation will be next year.I would like to see some international guests.

    On Monday Sept 26 I put 4.8 hrs in the KitFox. I am really enjoying this new to me Bird. Here is a video of some of the flight throuh the Red Deer River Badland area. My buddy was only about 75yrds back as the camera is very wide angle. Great day.
