Congrats Dan. A great way to celebrate your build and fulfill a dream that hd to become a little more possible with every part you installed on your model 6. That map is impressive. Hoping you have another Kitfox adventure in your very near future and this thread inspires others to explore the cross-country capabilities of their Kitfox.

Thanks!

The one thing I am so incredibly grateful for is such a supportive "ecosystem" around the Kitfox. We have Stick&Rudder for training, this forum for support, and most of all, a well run kitfoxaircraft llc to provide constant upgrades and replacement parts.

The one upgrade I just found that is available is the 48” extended cargo bay # 64891.105 that replaces the standard 32" one I have. That additional 16" of space will make the kitfox an even better cross country machine.

Congrats and I absolutely love the polkadot paint scheme.

Congrats and I absolutely love the polkadot paint scheme.

Thanks! It was inspired by my favorite childhood book, "Put me in the zoo" by Dr Seuss. It has the added benefit of making the plane virtually theft proof

I am actually wondering how far I could go if I made a custom gas tank for the passenger seat and one for the cargo area so that all the useful load was used for fuel.

What a great Kitfox trip - I am equally envious and admiring. I would like to read more about this journey if you decide to put something together. I'm a big fan of long trips in the Kitfox and about to embark on another summer of trans-European flying so thanks for the inspiration.
