Skystar Aircraft was on hand at the Toronto Aviation and
aircraft show
introducing
their new Canadian Kitfox dealer, Mark Lefebre of Nickel City
Ultralights.
Nickel City has been serving northern Ontario customers
for a number of years now. In the past Mark has offered flight training in
the Challenger and Bushcaddy but is now offering the full line of Skystar
products.
These include the latest release the Light Squared.
According to the factory represen tatives
"In the case of the Light Squared we have it down to a 400 hour build
time" this is possible because "we have prebuilt the frame, and
wings, and rigged the wings to airframe, leaving you with simple nut and
bolt construction to finish off the airplane."
"Once up and flying the Light equipped with a 503 Rotax engine,
will give you between a 500 and 700 per minute climb rate, cruise at 80
mph." With a 912 Rotax engine the performance figures for climb will
nearly double and cruise will increase to over 100 mph."
The Lite Squared like all Kitfox models has folding wings for quick and
easy storage. For short trips the wings can be folded and the craft pulled
along the highway on it's own gear, using a special tow bar. There are
also a number of trailers available specifically designed to allow
transport of a 'wing folded Kitfox."
