    Thank you very much at all :-)

    I'm very happy to read your words. Till now I have 160 amazing hrs with my kitfox,
    without any problems and in spite of the old engine. It makes so much fun and may
    be this little video inspires another enthusiastic pilot to do the same job and let
    an "old" kitfox fly again....

    Thanks

    I really like the transformation from the original tricycle to a shiny red taildragger. Producing the video to tell the story, and including details of the original builder, was a was a wonderful idea.

    Very nice job on both the restoration and the video.
