Jack Toman's KitFox Series 4-1200

Jack Toman of Lansing, MI began flying in 1972 at the Livingston County Airport in Howell, MI. He currently owns a Mini-Max which he purchased completed, and is working to attain his private pilot license by end of summer.

Kitfox Jack has previously built a Mini-Max to 80% completion prior to selling the aircraft, and is now working on a Kitfox Series 4-1200 which he bought already under construction. He was not really looking to purchase a project airplane, but liked the workmanship the previous owner had put into the airplane, and the price was right. "I'm glad I purchased the airplane now that I have it," Jack said. "I have had it just over a year now and I am planning on covering the airplane at the Great Lakes Fly-In, later this month." Jack says that the building, instructions, and support from Skystar have been good. The hardest part so far Jack says is "Dreaming of a paint scheme."

Jack still currently needs an engine package, but really hopes to have the airplane flying next summer.
