I wish to publicly thank Lowell (HIGHWING) for spending 5 1/2, yes five and one-half, hours with me yesterday answering all of my written and verbal pop-up questions; and allowing me to photograph every square inch of his great Kitfox! He was a VERY gracious host, and just plain awesome in his endeavors to help me get the information to get my Kitfox IV-1200 built. I had only seen, and sat in, Bob Forsyth's <rbsj3 here on the forum> Model II down in Arizona during a visit, which by the way, OBVIOUSLY got me into this Kitfox family. (Bob is my "Nam brother." We flew helicopters together in combat, in the same unit. So I get to blame him for my Kitfox addiction!!!)
Lowell's patience, and gracious hospitality was delightful! I now have a far deeper understanding of what I am building, and the standard of care required, due to his fantastic assistance. I feel much more confident now, as I continue to cover the aircraft, and then finish the aircraft construction! THANK YOU LOWELL!!! THANK YOU! Five and a half hours of Ktfox info!! Amazing!
I also wish to also thank each of you who have, and who continue to, contribute to the knowledge base on this forum. This is invaluable information for those of us who are now indebted to you for leading the way, and sharing your experiences with us. THANK YOU!
With that said, I am off to the hanger to start placing the finishing tapes on the left wing!
