that was and still is me. I started the other site so those who wanted to be able to discuss things openly and without moderation could do so. That is also me flying the kitfox in the video on the full lotus, I plan on having more vids done as soon as I get my Avid in the air.
To keep it on the short field take off thing, that is why I went with the IFA IVO prop. Flatten out for max RPM to get it rolling, then as the run progresses add pitch to keep RPM and EGT in check. The best of both worlds.
Yep the guys that take off short also go places. Maybe not coast to coast cross country but I do leave the pattern after dang near every takeoff, unless I am , gasp, practicing tough and goes or god forbid the dreaded stop and go. I routinely fly out of airports that have 8500' of runway, yet I strive to use as little as possible as I am quite sure my next landing or takeoff will be out of a 400' or less dirt grass or gravel strip that would leave most in need of new shorts.

Getting out in a Kitfox or Avid is easy. Getting in is tough. Clint

I can land any airplane anywhere…………………once!
That’s what I used to tell some of the folks I flew out to go hunting in Alaska when the began quizzing me about landing the Maule M6-235 on this or that gravel bar, steep hill and brushy open area.
Then, I’d tell them if they survived, they may have to walk home.
