\"\"Homedale, Idaho, March 18, 2014.<\/b>\u00a0 <\/span>Earlier this year, Kitfox Aircraft LLC announced that the company would not be able to participate in the big air shows of early 2014.\u00a0 <\/span>It seems that success had created a backlog of orders that simply took priority over trade show attendance.\u00a0 <\/span>According to John McBean, President of Kitfox Aircraft, \u201cWe received a call from the U.S. distributor for Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> engines with an offer we just couldn\u2019t refuse.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>Mr. McBean continued, \u201cThey asked if we could display our newest Kitfox S7 Super Sport at the independent Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> Service and Training Centre booth (SE-014 at the main entrance) at Sun \u2018n Fun this year, as a means of demonstrating the long time support Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> has provided to both the kit plane and S-LSA end of the light aircraft market.\u00a0 <\/span>As one of the most experienced users of the Rotax 9 series engines and manufacturer of both kit and S-LSA airframes using the Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> engines, we were honored to be selected as the company to represent Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> use in recreational aircraft.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. McBean is expected to leave his Idaho factory location on March 25<\/a>, allowing time for meetings with Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> staff and a briefing on important announcements that are expected from the Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> side of the house.\u00a0 <\/span>When asked about the production issues, John responded, \u201cShould I consider it a compliment if my team says they can do just fine without me at the plant?\u00a0 <\/span>Seriously, we have taken a good look at the production line and this trip will not impact deliveries.\u00a0 <\/span>The opportunity to support our good friends at Rotax\u00ae<\/sup> is just too good to pass up.\u00a0 <\/span>We hope that Kitfox enthusiast will stop by and say hello.\u00a0 <\/span>We may have some surprises to announce and I look forward to greeting folks in person.\u201d<\/p>\n
