(Matt Dralle) 1. 03:24 AM - Re: Engine Shut Down/Turkey Day/ Aircraft skis (Lynn Matteson) ________________________________ Message 0 _____________________________________ Time: 12:16:20 AM PST US From: Matt Dralle Subject: JabiruEngine-List: No "Black Friday" For List Fund Raiser... Dear Listers, Curiously, even though the number of List subscriptions are significantly up this year, support during this year's Fund Raiser is still substantially behind last year. There are only a couple more days left in November and the end of the Fund Raiser is quickly approaching. I have always preferred a non-commercial List experience as many, many members have also expressed that they do as well. However, if the yearly fund raiser cannot generate sufficient funds to keep the bills paid, other sources of income might be required including some sort of advertising. Please don't let that happen! Your personal Contribution of $20 or $30 goes a long ways to keeping the operation a float. Please make sure your name is on this year's List of Contributors published in December. The Contribution site is secure, quick, and easy: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 USA Thank you in advance for your support!

I always find something to modify on these skis. The first year I built them I made them "wheel penetration" skis where the wheel protruded through a hole in the ski, but last year I made up a new set that is similar to the Federal Skis, where the wheel sits in a notch in the ski. In this manner there is no ski material...frame, bottom or otherwise..to cause drag behind the wheel. Anything behind the wheel acts like a cheese slicer and just scoops up snow, etc., and deposits it on the rear of the ski, I have found.
