Base Price: Less Than $84K!
Kitfox Aircraft LLC provided ANN with a first glimpse of its new
Kitfox Super Sport S-LSA, which will be formally unveiled at the
Lakeland 2009 Fly-In next week.
The Kitfox design began 25 years ago and has evolved into an
American classic. Over 4,500 kits have been delivered into over 42
countries around the world. Now with the latest development of the
Kitfox S-LSA, even those who do not want to build one can enjoy
flying a highly-accomplished, well-regarded airplane.
Kitfox tells ANN the evolution in the design "has resulted in an
aircraft that is as at home in the back country as it is at your
local FBO."
The Kitfox Super Sport offers many fun flying characteristics...
including one of the quickest roll rates in the LSA category, agile
handling, great stability, superb slow speed control, a large
baggage area that can handle up to 150 lbs., remarkable 360 degree
in-flight visibility, side by side seating and dual flight
controls.
A hallmark feature of the Kitfox is its quick folding wings,
taking one person less than five minutes. Kitfox also notes the
aircraft also has an impeccable safety record, with over one
million flight hours accumulated with no in-flight structural
failures recorded.
Base price for the US-built Kitfox Super-Sport S-LSA is
$83,495.
As ANN has reported, Kitfox Aircraft LLC has
been owned and operated since 2006 by John and Debra McBean. Along
with a passion for and intricate knowledge of the Kitfox design,
the McBeans bring many years of aviation and business experience to
the company.
