The Kitfox Muscles Up With the Rotax 916
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Kitfox Aircraft showed not one but two Experimentals powered by the new 160-hp Rotax 916 at AirVenture 2023. We caught up with Kitfox's Brandon Petersen, whose own Kitfox has pride of place at the corner of the company booth. Builder of the "no-compromises" airplane, he describes the performance and capability of Kitfox's newest model.

Nice paint job
clear description.
One sure test of customer appeal? A two year wait list seems to say it all!
Does it come with magic beans?
How does that intercooler work at all facing right into the top of the cowl?

High pressure in the cowel area caused by forward speed of the aircraft.

@@266Larry Making the air turn 90 degrees and also go around all of the plumbing around the engine isn’t very efficient. I am glad my RANS has a dedicated air scoop that feeds directly into the intercooler.
A shame.
