    Default Sad news about friend and fellow kitfox flyer

    From what we understand Rodney had around 400 hours on his model 1 Kitfox at Tricities Airport in Endicott, NY. We think his last flight was the first attempt to land at his 800' backyard airstrip.

    Thomas, that is sad to read and watch the video. Condolences to all Rodney's family and friends from the Kitfox community. Always sad to hear of a fellow aviator passing.

    TeamKitfox.com flag officially lowered to half mast for Rodney.
