No ground loop but as close to out of control as I ever want to be and I have 10k hours and over 50 years of flying. Other than that it's been a great trouble free plane. Just be sure to service those items that require it at the condition inspection. I found this list and the people on it to be top notch and willing to help whenever possible. Thank you for that. New guys should probably do both lists and take advantage of the vast experience base of both. Hope to see you all at Oshkosh 2017.Regards,Rick WeissSeries V Speedster S/N 001.

Pat - I would very much like to spend some time in your neck of the woods. I think I mentioned I'm originally from Woodstock, IL. Sometimes I get to Poplar Grove for their annual fly-in. So we might meet there also.

Guy - I agree that there are many ADS-B In solutions. My ADS-B interest right now seeing if I can comply with the -Out requirements for under $2K as a target. A single box that combines the GPS and ADS-B together would be even nicer. I had some hope a couple of years ago when Google announced their interests in making a low-cost unit for drones. Something like that still might happen. So I'll just watch for a while and see. If 2020 arrives and I'm not equipped, no big deal because I seldom fly where I will need it. But eventually. So if any input is appreciated.

My dad grew up in Woodstock and learned to fly at Galt field. I had the opportunity to fly there with him in the early 1980s and land at 10C which now has a paved runway and is no longer a farm field next to a barn. :-\

my hanger room mate has a rv-12 which I have flown, they are great handeling planes. My opinion is that they are too easy to fly and ground handle. I like a bit of a challenge and I think thats why I like a tail draggin beast like the fox. Hows the nice fella at the FBO doing up there at c-houn that was injured on the 4 wheeler? Shows you can get hurt doing anything.

I appreciate that, Pat, but it's a pretty long trip from Phoenix these days. Looks like a little over 14 hours by Kitfox.

Mike, Your the wrong Mike. Mike Perkins lives an hour away by Kitfox. Damn I just came home from Phoenix. Would have rather gone for a flight with you than stumble around with my wife's relatives. I'm old but they are dead and haven't fallen over yet, not to mention humorless and cheap.....well there were a couple of them that weren't that bad. But, it only takes 1 rotten apple to spoil the barrel.

Thanks guys. I still havent picked up the project. A few more weeks. Mark im from the Rhode Island Donahue clan. That would be cool if related. Also, someone mentioned a kitfox off airport landing. The kitfox im buying has an instrument panel purchased from a slightly bent kifox. N211ES. Would be neat to find the history of it. Paul
