In <strong>the</strong> beginning what <strong>is</strong> now <strong>Kitfox</strong> <strong>Aircraft</strong> LLC began life as Denney<br />

Aerocraft. Denney Aerocraft had <strong>the</strong> great idea of using ultralight technology to<br />

produce a “real” aircraft that was light weight, simple and easy to build.<br />

Starting with <strong>the</strong> <strong>Kitfox</strong> Model 1 and ending with <strong>the</strong> <strong>Kitfox</strong> Model IV, <strong>the</strong><br />

Denny designs gained fame for <strong>the</strong>ir excellent short field performance, folding<br />

wings for transport and <strong>the</strong>ir affordability.<br />

In 1992, Denney Aerocraft became <strong>Sky</strong>Star <strong>Aircraft</strong> Corp. and a faster, larger<br />

line of <strong>Kitfox</strong>’s emerged. In 1995, Lycoming and Continental engines were<br />

added to a new <strong>Kitfox</strong> design.<br />

Today a new era begins. The <strong>Kitfox</strong> Super Sport takes advantage of some of <strong>the</strong><br />

ideas from <strong>the</strong> larger, faster <strong>Kitfox</strong>’s and brings it back towards it’s roots as a<br />

light weight, easy to build excellent short field performer that <strong>is</strong> simply a joy to<br />

build and fly.<br />

Welcome to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Kitfox</strong> family.. We’re glad you’re here.<br />

Owner performed maintenance and folding wings for storage, you can keep <strong>the</strong><br />

cost of ownership much lower than o<strong>the</strong>r aircraft.<br />

Assembly<br />

YOU can do it… No special tools or fixtures are needed. Your <strong>Kitfox</strong> can be<br />

assembled in a small garage. Fabric work <strong>is</strong> one of <strong>the</strong> easiest of all aircraft<br />

specific skills to learn and has been around for a very long time. Today’s fabric<br />

covering <strong>is</strong> much easier and quicker than <strong>the</strong> old days. The 350+ page assembly<br />

manual, one of <strong>the</strong> industries best, breaks <strong>the</strong> “big jobs” down into small easy to<br />

perform steps with 100’s of drawings and actual photos to cover <strong>the</strong> details. The<br />

manual also serves as <strong>the</strong> FAA required assembly record and a maintenance<br />

reference.<br />
