Testimonials

CURT PITZER

"The CHIPPER kit had it all: I spend three to four hours most days and thoroughly enjoy watching the progress. Belite is always working to improve the basic kit, i.e. I just purchased the aluminum wing option which utilizes the basic kit wing to replace the fabric covering.”

ROBERT HENSEN

"Belite with James at the helm has produced an outstanding kit aircraft! The kit requires no jigs, and with previous experience, is a head spinning fast build. The full potential for this plane, I believe, has yet to be reached!"

ROBERT HELMS

"I’m 6’6” and I fit! This is the best value kit plane on the market. Easy to build."
