We plan to arrive Sunday and probably depart Thursday. We will be camping in Homebuilt Camping. Look for a bright orange tent. Erich Trombley and Mike Duane are planning to fly from Las Vegas. Thorston Schilling expressed an interest in flying in also. I promise to check my cell phone, 269-599-0122.

From: "moosix" Among many exotic or special ways of acquiring enjoyment is watching women without clothes. This may be an act of art also for some person. So you are able to visit http://myteenwebcam.com if you prefer this kind of video. It is not recommended to visit it if you are under 21 by the way. The collection of videos is available almost around the clock.

From: "JonathanMilbank" Well, I can't compete on the lady front for quality, except of course for my perfect wife, but I can make up to some extent with quantity! My Wonderful Angel and I go to modern jive dance classes twice a week, as we have done since we met there almost 15 years ago. My goal is to reach at least 1000 different people being taken for a flight in my Europa before I'm "past it" and those people should never previously have been up in a small 2 seat aircraft in their lives. Already I've exceeded 500 such passengers and at least 300 were women. Perhaps this is because I don't tend to dance with men! Naturally each and every passenger meets with the approval of "She who must be obeyed", so I've never gotten past first base. In any case at nearly 70, I wouldn't know what to do if anything were offered anyway. Furthermore that's never been the objective. Here's how we get "down and dirty" twice a week, doing everything and more dance moves than seen in this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P7Igr81DEg And our legs don't risk getting entangled in flying controls. I guess you would have to remove the control stick to achieve level 6!

I went to do my first flight with it this evening and just could not get the darn engine (Rotax 912UL) to start. Just lots of cranking from the freshly charged battery. Obviously I had removed and replaced the panel but everything seems to work OK, fuel pump, starter, etc. so I don't think there is anything wrong there - although I would like to make sure the mags are on. The best way I can think of is to test for a spark. Any recommendations out there for testing to see if you have a spark? I believe the removal of a spark plug is not recommended on a Rotax. I felt the hint of a kick once or twice so I suspect they are good. My suspicions lie with the carbs - in particular the choke. It is really stiff and the geometry is such that it never quite fully opens. I removed the air box and stuck my nose next to the air intakes. Considering the amount of cranking and choking I had done you would think I would be able to smell fuel - but couldn't smell anything. Anyone used some kind of 'quick start fluid' like the kind I use on my stubborn lawnmower or is that a bit too extreme? Anything 'more obvious' I can try?
