Well, about me… hum. I have built a few planes in the past and currently own and fly a Skystar Kitfox 7 located in Auburn WA. If you’re interested in checking it out, drop me a line and I’d be happy to talk planes with you.
Previous Planes
Vans RV9A
I started construction in July 2001. The first flight was February 23rd 2003. Progress was steady for about 18 months. I used all the standard build kits from Vans Aircraft. Starting with the tail kit, then wings, next fuselage, then finally the finishing kit. FWF included a new Aerosport 0-320-D2A and Sensenich metal prop. A Basic VFR panel kept costs inline and has provided all the functionality that I needed.
Team Minimax
This was my first homebuilt airplane. It was a single seat wood and fabric ultralight. Powered by a 40hp Hirth 2702 engine it would fly 60mph. It was lots of fun flying out in the open on nice summer days. It also was great fun flying a taildragger and learning the operation and maintenance of 2 stroke engines. I never had any problems with this plane and it’s still flying up around Arlington WA today.
Other Planes I’ve flown
Cessna 172 (Learned to fly initially in a few of these)
Taylorcraft BC12D (got my taildragger endorsement in this)
