yours won't either"?

You're absolutely right, Luis. Denney produced 4 models of Kitfox,
SkyStar produced 3 more, and Kitfox LLC is producing yet another. At
least two different airfoils have been produced in two different
lengths with two wing tip styles, and most can be assembled in any
combination. Vertical tail size has changed several times, as have
the elevators. Some have airfoil-shaped tail surfaces, others are
flat.
In that time, maximum gross weights have more than doubled and both
low- and high-end speeds have changed considerably. Don't forget
that Avid produced many models of their kits, too, and quite of few
Avid builders and flyers are on this list.
Moreover, no two kits will turn out exactly alike, even those built
by the same people. The bottom line is that generalizations must
always be taken with a grain of salt. Although there are many common
characteristics of our airplanes, each one is truly a unique beast!
