Now you got something there, John...

Will the Rotec FWF work on a model IV??

Nice, you should get someone to put that on a tshirt for you.

That is a thing of beauty!

Guaranteed to be a cover girl John. Agree with Wiley. Beautiful. Can't wait to see it at Oshkosh all adorned in the new cowling and pants. It's great that the Kitfox airframe is so versatile as to accept many different engine choices.
Now those that want to go Rotec on their model 5's through 7 Super Sports can have a much easier time with a factory supported firewall forward package.

Is it just me or has anyone else ever noticed the resemblance of the bump cowl Kitfox and the later seried Monocoupe. The Monocoupe had a reverse curved rear fuselage and with the Rotec radial the Kitfox looks even more like it. I think that's a compliment to the Kitfox because the Monocoupe has about the nicest lines of all the classic light planes. Maybe one of you "ace" builders will build a Kitfox with round wingtips and rounded tail and maybe fared over gear legs. The cowling looks good. Up till now no one has come up with one that looks right. The new Luscomb has tried the Rotec radial but the cowling doesn't look right. Too square. James Thomas

John, Do you get the drumming effect you spoke of earlier in another post with the two blade prop(thus use of three blades on Rotax) on the Rotec?
