Posted 8 May 2013 Kitfox Model IV - 1050 Project for sale. 375 hrs TTAF, approx. 213 hrs SMOH on Rotax 582 grey head. I bought this airplane last summer, but it was damaged in transport while I was bringing it home on a trailer. It needs some work before it is airworthy. Needs new fabric, and the longerons on the top of the fuselage behind the turtledeck need to be straightened. I also have a new molded windshield and clear bubble doors from LP Aero and a new clear lexan turtledeck from Kitfox. Has Grove spring gear, tundra tires and skis. Has dual 13 gallon wing tanks. Registered as an Advanced Ultralight (AULA) in Canada. • Contact Randy Engler, Owner - located Sylvan Lake, AB Canada • Telephone: 403-896-0551 Email:rengler@live.ca - will consider trading up to a flying aircraft.

Posted 8 May 2013 That is an easy fix... under a week to have it in the air and flying Randy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 8 May 2013 Yes, asking $7500, at the rate I work it will take me a lot more than a week to fix, it really needs a complete fabric job. I spend most of my time away from home, and the time I do have I would rather be flying than working on a plane. Also looking for a plane with a 912 on it.

Posted 8 May 2013 Yep I work at a remote plant site north of Fort McMurray in Alberta. Now I need to find a plane that doesn't need a bunch of work. Anybody got an Avid or a Kitfox with a 912 for sale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 24 Apr 2017 I was searching old threads and noticed Randy's old post selling his Kitfox. I am the guy that bought itand happy to report it hit the air the end of Sept 2016. About 2.5 years after I got it. I did a complete rebuild and added a few options. First a 912UL with an in flight adjustable IVO. Then speedster tail modand a wide body mod. Also bubble doors so lots of room in the cabin. I am loving the way it flys and theperformance. I put 60hrs on her the first 60 days. Still flying her lots whenever the weather permits. 2 people like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
