Just heard on the radio that an ultralight pilot was nabbed this morning
because he was flying around the Palo Verde Nuclear power plant (west of

exchanges between airline pilots and control towers from around the world:
While taxiing at London Gatwick, the crew of a US Air flight departing for Ft.
Lauderdale made a wrong turn and came nose to nose with a United 767. An irate
female ground controller lashed out at the US Air crew, screaming: "US Air 2771,
where the hell are you going? I told you to turn right onto Charlie taxiway!
You
turned right on Delta! Stop right there. I know it's difficult for you to tell
the difference between Cs and Ds, but get it right!" Continuing her tirade to
the
embarrassed crew, she was now shouting hysterically: "God, you've screwed everything
up! It'll take forever to sort this out! You stay right there and don't
move till I
tell you to! You can expect progressive taxi instructions in about half an hour
and I want you to go exactly where I tell you, when I tell you, and how I tell
you! You
got that, US Air 2771?"
"Yes ma'am," the humbled crew responded. Naturally the ground control frequency
went terribly silent after the verbal bashing of US Air 2771. Nobody wanted to
engage the irate ground controller in her current state. Tension in every cockpit
at LGW was running high. Then an unknown pilot broke the silence and asked:
"Wasn't I married to you once?"
A DC-10 had an exceedingly long rollout after landing with his approach speed a
little high. San Jose Tower: "American 751 heavy, turn right at the end of the
runway, if able. If not able, take the Guadalupe exit off Highway 101, make a right
at the lights and return to the airport."
Unknown aircraft: "I'm f...ing bored!"
Air Traffic Control: "Last aircraft transmitting, identify yourself immediately!"
Unknown aircraft: "I said I was f...ing bored, not f...ing stupid!"
The German air controllers at Frankfurt Airport are renowned as a short-tempered
lot. They not only expect one to know one's gate parking location, but how to
get
there without any assistance from them. So it was with some amusement that we (a
Pan Am 747) listened to the following exchange between Frankfurt ground
control and a British Airways 747, call sign "Speedbird 206":
Speedbird 206: "Frankfurt, Speedbird 206 clear of active runway."
Ground: "Speedbird 206. Taxi to gate Alpha One-Seven."
The BA 747 pulled onto the main taxiway and slowed to a stop.
Ground: "Speedbird, do you not know where you are going?"
Speedbird 206: "Stand by, Ground, I'm looking up our gate location now."
Ground (with arrogant impatience): "Speedbird 206, have you not been to Frankfurt
before?"
Speedbird 206 (coolly): "Yes, twice in 1944 but it was dark and I didn't stop."
O'Hare Approach Control: "United 329 heavy, your traffic is a Fokker, One o'clock,
three miles, eastbound."
United 239: "Approach, I've always wanted to say this... I've got the little Fokker
in sight."
A PanAm 727 flight engineer waiting for start clearance in Munich Overheard the
following:
Lufthansa (in German): "Ground, what is our start clearance time?"
Ground (in English): "If you want an answer you must speak English."
Lufthansa (in English): "I am a German, flying a German airplane, in Germany. Why
must I speak English?"
Unknown voice (in a beautiful British accent): "Because you lost the bloody war!"

On my Mark III, I replaced my 503 with a 532 and I have two problems:
1- The egt on the front reads just under 1200 while the rear reads about 1000.
Any ideas?
2 - I have not been able to get a tach to read correctly during flight. It will
show about 4800 rpm, then when I increase the throttle it drops rpm. Any more
ideas?

David,
My name is Wayne McCullough and I am the president of EAA chapter 330 here
in Georgia.
I was wondering if you knew of Steve Beatty at Airscrew Performance and
what kind of CDI unit he was using on the Rotax engines. I was told it was
from a Kawasaki 440 , but I do not know if it is a jetski or motorcycle as
we are not familiar with it over here on the East coast.
I would think that if anyone could get this info, it would be a fellow
EAAer in the same state.
Thanks for your reply in advance,

Hello all,
Does anyone know where I can get liability insurance for my Firestar? Avemco apparently
no longer insures this model as a Part 103 UL. EAA has closed its insurance
program. Is anything else available?

EAA is using Falcon Insurance, get them to connect you. They are about 30%

Not necessarily in order of easiest to do -
1. Swap the probes to make sure that it is the engine and not the probes.
If that doesn't resolve the question:
2. Run a compression test to make sure the cylinders are the same, check
the rings for being stuck - problems.
3. Run a pressure/vacuum test on the crankcase to ensure that there are no
leaking seals.
4. Needle jets/jet needles worn unevenly.
5. One carb has floats that are fuel logged.
6. Points are not set the same. One cylinder is firing late. ( Or early )
(Beware of "Rotax" points from Airstar Discount Sales. They have a useful
life of about 6 hours. Guess how I know this?) (Found out about half way to
Oshkosh...)
>2 - I have not been able to get a tach to read correctly during flight. It

>Any more ideas?
Try reversing the leads from the lighting coil to the tach. If the leads
from the lighting coil go to the regulator/rectifier first, try swapping
the wires to the tach between the tach and the regulator/rectifier. If that
doesn't fix it, try swapping the leads from the engine to the regulator
rectifier first, and then if that doesn't work, THEN swap the wires where
they come off the regulator/rectifier. (Now guess how I know how to do all
this? .....sigh) ( If you don't take notes, you'll never keep track of what
you are doing)
Also, what is the part number on your tach? (I am assuming Westach?) If
your tach worked off the lighting coil on the 503, then it ought to work
off the lighting coil on the 532. But if the 503 had Ducati dual ignition....

Richard,
Don't you have to be "legal"? A true 103 or certified Experimental?

Have you balanced the carbs lately?
Are the CHT's that far apart as well or just the EGT? If CHT is close and EGT
is far apart, it's in the sensing mechanism and not the engine.

Found this on the TNK website:
The New Kolb Aircraft Company would like to acknowledge the adventure of Steve
Ledbetter, a Mark III Classic owner who flew his plane, with a friend, from Pendleton,
Indiana round trip to Seattle, Washington. Due to engine problems, Steve
was unable to complete his full return trip with his Mark III. We congratulate
you Steve on your achievement! You are an excellent advertisement for the
durability and dependability of a Kolb Aircraft.
Why in the dickens don't we have some of the "adventures" from the group of folks
on-list?

Don't know. Maybe. Sorry if they don't insure illegal unregistered aircraft.
Can't imagine why they wouldn't want to insure illegal unregistered aircraft...

Hello Kolbers,
I have been reading,learning and gaining knowladge about Kolb aircraft and avaition
in general from this list. I would like to thank everyone and Matt for this
neat list. Often questions are posted and anwsered, feelings are tested, and
sometimes folks just plain sound off! Good for the soul. Avaition is new to
me. Just 20 hrs as student pilot with plans to achive a privates certificate and
make avation a big part of "My next 20 years" Humor is also good for the soul
and at times I feel compelled to share with the list members. So I hope that
you will not be offended by my, from time to time postings of such, but rather
a lighter side of this as some times it is good to laugh at other folks experiancens.
Case in point. As Jeremy Casey said to us when we visited him and had our first
encounter with the Kolb airplanes. He quoted a manufacture of a aircraft company's
moto'
"Learn from other pepoles mistakes.... You won't live long enough to make them
all yourself" !!!!!
So with that said I share the following......
innovation shown in these misadventures.
Coors Light and the Ultra Light
2000 Honorable Mention
Confirmed True by Darwin
(13 September 2000, Indiana) The antics of an unidentified Lafayette
pilot are surely a source of private chagrin to his relatives. During his fly-by-night
escapades, the jovial aviator enjoyed circling an area of town and
toasting the people below with Coors beer. This time he went too far.
He was flying his Ultra Light aircraft over a small section of homes,
saluting the spectators with his beer can, when he smashed into a homeowner=92s
huge TV tower. It is a mystery how he could fail to notice the 150-foot structure,
particularly as it was topped with a gaudy Christmas tree star, but
fail to notice it he did. The aircraft knocked a a 45-foot section out of the
tower, sliced through three steel cables, and dove to within 40 feet of the ground
before the embarrassed pilot managed to regain control and fly away.
The Red Baron caused about $4000 of damage. Although his identity is
unknown, several clues were found at the scene: his left shoe, sunglasses, and
a can of Coors Light were among the debris left by the plane. A compass and
speedometer were also found. Police are baffled by the crash, and not sure whether
to consider criminal charges. Lt. Rick Blacker said, "I don't think an Ultra
Light would classify as a vehicle."
The next time you are in Indiana, look for a guy with only one shoe
and holding a beer. He just might be the mystery marauder.

Wayne & All,
The ignition system you are looking for is what Kawasaki & Cuyuna used
and what Rotax still uses on all their non aviation engines. Nippendenso
(spelling?) makes it. It differs from the Rotax aviation system by Ducatti
(Spelling?), in that it uses a timing curve to retard the timing at lower
rpm. Why Rotax uses this inferior system only on its aviation engines must
be a liability issue. ...Richard Swiderski

Before you folks get a linch-party formed, you better hear the whole story. This
was Adriel Heisey and he did have permission to fly there, but apparantly whoever
gave him the permission bothered to tell the FAA. That is not Adriel's
fault. He is a renouned photographer of the Sonoran Desert and is an outstanding
pilot. He is featured regularly in National Geographic, Arizona Highways
and has published high quality books. Someone like John Hauck has more experience,
but most of us pale in comparison to Adriel Heisey's experience and skill,
so don't throw too many stones until you hear more than a headline.
Jim Hefner
Tucson, AZ
PS: Adriel is who I talked to, before deciding to buy a Kolb. He's a class act,a
real artist, a gentleman and a hell of a pilot. When you can fly your Kolb
with a velcro strap around your knee like he does while taking pictures, let
me know.

I hope they screw this person good. This type is who screw us and bring lots of
laws on are ultralight sport.That aircraft has violated fed airspace plus FAA
regs; people that ignorant should not be near anything that flys including kites.

Just heard on the radio that an ultralight pilot was nabbed this morning
because he was flying around the Palo Verde Nuclear power plant (west of
Phoenix) this morning. I understand the UL driver was from Tucson. Do not
know for sure if was a real ultralight or if the press just thinks it is.

Well, my FireStar is a FAT ultralight that carries around a FAT pilot, so I guess
we're a pair!!
