    really want to see. last year I flew to osh, but not this year. so I guess I'm out. still want to see. you going to any of the aopa flyins. there is one here at felts in august and I'm planning on the one in California in September. I take it from your statement of low and slow that you prefer white. that's my rule. I have the short wing with 912uls. a real goer.

    My airplane is short wing, 912uls, Ivo medium inflight. I generally fly around with half tanks also. I have the newer tanks so I can put anything in them. 12 on both sides. I also have the electric trim in the elevator, very nice addition. last night on landing I switched off the motor just before landing, makes for a nice landing. start back up as soon as I land. that stuff is way fun.

    Slyfox,

    My old IV has the short vertical stabilizer and rudder, old narrow gear, make believe landing lights and spends much of its time at a location where winds seem never to lay down, so power off night landings are beyond my comfort level. I guess I forgot to mention high pilot chicken level in that mix but that was probably obvious anyway.

    I have been thinking of maybe doing a How To Tour by RV with Kitfox Power Point at one or more of the AOPA flyins but have not committed yet. Probably do the light sport fall (September?) event in Mass on way to Maine then head to southwest for rest of fall until November and return to the Fl Keys for off shore superboat races in Key West

    (I do love being retired, and on my own spur of the moment schedule)

    BJ
