Title: New Arctic Fox- LA25 size
Post by: Leo Mehl on March 18, 2012, 10:34:22 AM

I have all peices built and am in procees of putting them togather. It is a little smaller than the original Fox and will be powered by a 25 LA or FP. I t is a scaled down version that could fit in most small car trunks like our Aveo. I will be using a lot less fuel to fly this plane and something I wanted to do. I already have a smaller version for a fox 25 engine that is scaled down smaller than this one and was built for the power curve of the fox. The plane will do the whole pattern in the usual 2-4 b4eak and the plane sits right in the groove like the Big Fox. I will do pictures as soon as it is framed up/

Yeah but then we would miss out on what we have named the Leo maneuver. That is where he blows the prop and spinner off while starting his plane. It has happened so often we had to harass him and give it a name.
