As for the cold Norway, we have so much snow at the moment that I can't
get to my Kitfox.
Michelle I think I know how you feel. On Jan. 26th it started to snow in
central europe and until this last weekend (Feb. 19th.) nothing moved at our
airfield except the occasional helicopter and a deer bouncing across the
snow covered runway. A winter from hell if I may use an oxymoron. I'm not
looking for sympathy (ok I am looking for sympathy) but we received the
permit to fly back in Ocober. We still had a few things to do so it was
probably December before the S5 was really ready to fly. Since then the test
pilot has been unavailable (understandable family problems) and the winter
has closed the airfield. So a perfectly flyable brand new Kitfox standing in
the hangar for about two months. Maybe next week it will fly. I did,
finally, fly the Motorfalke on Sunday. A beautiful day and a great way to
beat the winter blues. Cheers. Kerry. S5 Kitfox builders helper.
