Hey guys,

My tall friend, 6'3 is looking at a Kitfox V on the Internet.  Will he fit in one?

Are there any quirks about a V that he should now about?

 

Thanks,

Ron

Ron,

The Kitfox 5 has adjustable rudder pedals, wider cockpit, and seats may be adjustable? - most of height is usually in the legs - I think he will fit in it.   I don't know of any quirks.  What engine?

The 5, 6, 7 and SS dimensionally are the same cabin.  They do have the option for adjustable rudder peddles, but not all have the feature.  Like Ed said, they are bigger than the early planes and should accommodate a person of that size fairly well. 

Is your friend tall and thin or a big football player type?

He is tall and mid weight...

He is now looking at building a Kitfox VII.  He has setup a factory tour and a flight.  I think he is hooked.

thanks for the input.  I'm sure he will be on this forum soon.

 

thanks,

Ron
