Thanks for all the hospitality, all. I'm looking forward to some Idaho back country flying some day- my folks and sister live near a lot of it in McCall. Beautiful country for sure!

Hi Tony,
The photo I attached with the "highlighter green" kitfox Includes Dan Denny who is the guy on the right; and, John Mc Bean - who owns the Kitfox company today.
The obvious modification on "Special Effects" is the stall fences. Less obvious is the extended flaperons - both inboard & outboard ends. I am sure the plane has many other mods less that are not obvious to the eye from a distance.
The plane in my previous attached photo belongs to Dan D; and, if you check out DesertFox4's avatar, you will see a striking similarity on the paint scheme...actually it is not similar....it's the plane.
Check out the ceiling of the hangar in this attached photo......let's just say that DesertFox4's avatar is not a photoshop job.......
I think this stuff is an inspiration to us all in our world of experimental aircraft......when we check around, there are a lot of truly interesting things going on - and many reasons why the Kitfox is such well tested & solid design.
Sincerely,
