Default Kwik Fli

Have just recently completed a Kwik Fli. The fuse was entirely plans built with the wing built from a partial wing kit. First effort at barndoor ailerons. Being somewhat sentimental, as it is an older kit I had to put Fox motor up front. I wasn't happy with the power plant choice at first but, now that I have put about 15 flights on it, the Fox is just about broken in and I am lovin' it. Starts easily, idles well, pulls the plane around the patch with no problems and appears to be getting better with every tankful. I covered the plane with Solartex.

After looking at my small fleet I have come to the conclusion that most of my planes are early 70's era designs. My other workhorse plane is a Bridi Sun Fli 4. What a marvelous flying plane. I do like the way they fly.
