This is why LSA will become more and more popular. A
fuel line for a Kit Fox with a 582 Rotax cost about $20.00, top of
the line. The same fuel line TSO'ed for a general aviation
airplane would cost about $2040.00 with installation and an
inspection and sign off by a A&E. Make mine a Challenger. Jim, at
an erie place.
