Then again... If you pay tax for the "airplane" that you purchased based
on the invoice value of the first partial kit, you could save yourself a
few $$$'s. The fact that you are still going to have to buy "a couple of
extra components" for it before it can actually fly doesn't have to be
mentioned to the state.

Are you reserving the specific N number or registering an aircraft - Mr.
Tax Man may be calling soon if you registered it. Cost you about $10
year
to hold (reserve) a N number. Don't register it until your near
completion
other wise it appears to the state in which you reside that you may have
sales tax or personal property taxes due.

Jerb,
I was reserving my number of choice for the cost of $10 as you mentioned.
Today I am mailing the request for the issuance of that number (registering
my aircraft) as I am close to completion.

Your one of few that has done it the right way. Many think registering a
aircraft is done to hold a desired N number thus often end up having tax
problems far before their ever near completion.
For those new to this process, reserve a specific available N number you
wish to hold (cost $10 year) and register an aircraft (under that number)
as you near completion. Most states obtain registration records for there
state. This triggers the states and local government sales and property
tax collection process.

I wrote this as a joke, but I guess no body picked up on it. Actually I have flown

If want a fully developed engine package the 912 or 912S Rotax is by far the
best engine for the Kolb MKIII or extra.
If you need to save money the VW engine is a alternative and it is the least
expensive. The engine with all accessories will run you $5,000.00 to
$6,000.00. The main problem is there is no package that you just bolt on.
Great Plains has most of stuff for the VW and they have quality parts but
they don't sell a engine package for Kolb air planes. There are three items
that you will need to have custom made to put a VW on a Kolb, the engine
mount, cooling shrouds and a exhaust system. Everything else is off the
shelf you just have to pick the right parts. The VW engine for a Kolb is
basically a low RPM low compression dune buggy engine with a reduction
drive. There is a lot of talk about on this site about if you don't get a
Rotax you become the test pilot. To some point they are right but keep in
mind VWs have been flying in airplanes for a lot more years than Rotax has.

Paul, I am going to catch a lot of heat for this post... but I can't stand
it.. GO WITH THE 912, you will never regret it,besides the OTHERS have not
been proven. Just bite the bullet and pay the price for an engine that has
a good record on the MK III.. The main man at KOLB in 95, when I bought my
MK III kit ( that would be Homer ) at sun and fun when I had just started my
kit,said the 912 was the best engine for the MK III. He also said to leave
the test pilot thing to folks that are test pilots, and enjoy what we have
proven to work. I don't know how much you know about Homer, but he puts
the grease right on the squeak, let's the chips fall where they may...
sorry BIG LAR just stating what I think...

Actually, my experience in Florida was that the initial kit purchase was all
they were interested in. I called the state tax office when I got the
notice (shortly after I registered the plane), and when they heard I was
building an experimental lightplane they just asked me to use the price of
the first kit as the value. They were very understanding. The way the
regulations read, they could have dinged me for the penalty (1% per month)
from the date of purchase, but they said the practice was to base it on the
registration date, so I just paid tax on the initial kit price. I talked
with the guy a while, and he said they have a desk at Sun'n'Fun, and try to
get the message out to builders. They're not after us, but the corporations
buying Gulfstreams.....

| Subject: | Wanted, Three blade powerfin. |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: <rowedl@highstream.net>
Listers,
I will soon be ordering a three blade F model Powerfin prop of 68" diameter for
my Mk-3.
Being the tightwad that I am, I figured I would check with you folks first to see
if someone might have one for sale before I drop the $625 for a new one.
This would be a good time for someone to try one of those Kiev Hot Props. GRIN
I am very settled on the Powerfin due to its low weight, and its price as compaired
to a Warp and Hot prop. Also, the 2SI rep says this prop works great with
my engine. In addition fellow Kolber Luray Wector has the exact engine and
prop combo on his Slingshot and it Kicks.
Let me know,
Thanks

Hello all.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Hugh and I've been lurking on this list
a while now. I'm looking for a local owner/builder that would be willing to
set up a meet. I'd prefer to see a Mark III or Xtra since that's what I'm going
to build. I live near Santa Monica airport but I'm willing to drive 100
miles or more if I need to. I'd really like to see one in person and take a flight
in one if possible. Also, if anyone can recommend a good flight school/
instructor in my area. There's so many to choose from I could use a little help.
Thanks in advance.

Tom,
What is the lead time on the Powerfin? I want to time this so I can bolt it
on , fire the engine up and start the break-in. I should be ready in mid
January, maybe a little later.
Thanks for the good price and as long as a good used one doesn't turn up by
order time, I think you have a sale.

Sorry for the delay................things have been very busy lately at
work. I'm pushing hard for a promotion, (and a raise in pay) and I may just
get it. Biggest problem is that I'm just not a very good politician, and
what I'm aiming at is the lower end of that area...............Chief
Engineer. Been running my wheels off, anyway. I scanned these in
tonight, and thought you might enjoy them. The airboat pic shows it
beginning it's sideways slide, just before he swapped ends with it.
Exciting, to say the least................too bad it was the last pic on the
last roll of film I had. I'm sure you'll recognize the black 185 on
amphibs. Nice plane, but I wasn't allowed to touch the controls, and it was
EXpensive ! ! ! I had wanted to do my BFR in it, but he said his insurance
wouldn't cover it. Oh Well ! ! ! The aerial pic shows the airboat area,
with the convenience store at the SW corner of the intersection. North is
up. Across the highway was a tourist center............not sure, maybe the
local National Park, or something.

Santa Monica and Malibu are my old stomping, surfing, diving & party-ing
grounds, from way back in the '60's. What Memories ! ! ! You're only a
little (??) over 100 miles away. I'm not set up for visitors right now, (a
little re-modelling now, then family coming for the holidays) but in a few
weeks - after Christmas - you'd be welcome to come and meet Vamoose. Not
flying yet, and if I don't get my butt in gear, it might never get
going..................but my intentions are good, and it IS almost done.

> Hello all.
> Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Hugh and I've been lurking on
this list a while now. I'm looking for a local owner/builder that would be
willing to set up a meet. I'd prefer to see a Mark III or Xtra since that's
what I'm going to build. I live near Santa Monica airport but I'm willing
to drive 100 miles or more if I need to. I'd really like to see one in
person and take a flight in one if possible. Also, if anyone can recommend
a good flight school/ instructor in my area. There's so many to choose from
I could use a little help.

Parts that have been press fit together by heating the outer part and
cooling the inner one can, in fact, have a reverse procedure done to take
them apart if that becomes necessary. Use heat to warm the outer part (of
course the inner part will also be warmed at the same time). Then apply cold
to the inner part using a chunk of dry ice. This is effective, but probably
depends on the configuration being worked with. Handle dry ice with
considerable care. Applying it to something that's hot can be kind of
spectacular - lots of "boil and bubble". By the way, I have never done this
myself - I just witnessed a (non-aircraft) mechanic use the technique on an
assembly out of a farm tractor.
