Our apologies for the lack of posts recently. With the many days and hours put in by the KipAero crew in preparation for our appearance at Oshkosh; disassembling and loading the Sopwith & Bessonneau, assembling and working the display, then disassembling and repacking everything for the return to Dallas, everyone was left totally exhausted.
Taking a few days to recover before unloading, we soon realized that with daily temperatures exceeding the century mark, our ability to reassemble and prepare the aeroplane for flight was going to be more challenging than expected. Electing to wait for a brief temperature drop to provide that window of opportunity, we were hoping September would be our time.
Despite temperatures in the mid 90's for most of September, we have made great progress and are currently running tests in preparation for first flight.
Thanks to all our crew for their hard work above and beyond. And thanks to all our fans and friends for your support. ... See MoreSee Less
