    From: "mark_trickel" <marktrickel@gmail.com>
    Thanks everybody for your kind words and encouragement. I am happy to be a member of this limited fraternity by more than just my name. Robert, I knew you had a pic of Kens airplane, I sent all my friends to your site to see what I was getting into. Scott, she has no engine. A Jabiru engine was being fitted to it but sadly it was sold off days before the owner I bought the airplane from got to the scene. The airplanes interim owner had died and it became a fire sale of sorts to get rid of all the stuff in the hanger. What does it need? More like what doesn't it need! I haven't had enough time to go over the entire airplane yet but the list of things to do is very long. It has a lot of hanger rash - fairings are cracked or broken. The rudder was banged up against a wall and is split open, and of course the top of the tail has to be replaced. Ken has a bell-crank in front of station 189 with a push rod to activate the rudder. I am not so sure it yields a full right and left movement. The tail wheel springs are inside the fuselage a cool set up but I don't know if this will remain under my care. It has a stock elevator with no trim tab, Ken had some sort of spring deal attached to the elevator control which I am not to comfortable with. It will probably get an entirely new elevator, Scott I am interested in your next move for yours - I don't like the big gap under the current one at full up elevator during landing and I don't like vgs either. On Kens last flight upon landing he hit a post with the left wing - there is a 6+ inch hole in the left wing tank - that is bad but the inside of the tank looks great! There are no fuel senders installed. There is no electrical system left but a few wires here and there (all non aircraft wire). The panel is empty but for airspeed, and turn and bank. The rest of the gages were all automotive and are all disconnected and most likely are trash. One interesting thing - on the inside firewall is a remotely operated fire extinguisher for the engine compartment. But its hook up is missing its activation method. So you see I really have a project...won't make Oshkosh this year, Darn! Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=398440#398440

    Hey Mark,=0A-=0AThe next things under concideration for my airplane are: - swapping my prince prop for a whirlwind ground adjustable,- raising t he main gear axles as much as possible (about 1.5 inches, it sits too nose high), removing the copilot side brakes to reduce wight and complexity.- =0A-=0ALike you I would like to do something about the huge elevator gap. - I will probably put a radius on the LE of the elevator, but I don't thi ng there is much else that can be done due to the large up elevator deflect ion and the short depth of the cove.- I think it would have been better t o hinge the elevator on the bottom since there is so much less down elevato r deflection and thus a smaller gap to deal with.- Maybe we will do that on the Cruiser, it would help with control tube clearance under the horizon tal too.=0A-=0AScott=0A =0A=0A________________________________=0A From: m ark_trickel <marktrickel@gmail.com>=0ATo: kis-list@matronics.com =0ASent: T hursday, April 11, 2013 8:09 AM=0ASubject: KIS-List: Re: KIS For Sale on Ba ickel@gmail.com>=0A=0AThanks everybody for your kind words and encouragemen t.
