Hey,
This has been sent this me and I did go and follow the steps and the "folder" came
up, so in case this is not a hoax, follow the steps and I guess pass it on
to everyone in your address book.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

This is legitimate. I did find this virus.

Kolbers,
I have a Ken Brock seat tank that I bought awhile ago from someone
on the list and am curious as to the determination of the capacity.I was told
it was 6 gallons but there is no part number or label.I don't really want to
put gas in it yet(or any other liquid) to find out.The reason I am wondering
is I may try to keep the modified Ultrastar I am building in the UL category
. I have the light 2SI 35hp without the lighting coil and the belt drive and have
been careful with weight and may be able to stay under the 254 even with a
partial enclosure. (Probably dreaming?)
How many sizes of Brock seat tanks are there and does any one else manufacture
similar units.I was not able to find any info on the Brock site.
Also , Is it possible to install a permanent gap seal and still fold an
Ultrastar without removing the gap seal ?
Ed (still shoveling) in Western NY

| Subject: | obtain rotax service manuals/447 |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Tom Olenik" <olenik-aviation@buyitsellitfixit.com>
There is no suitable manual yet published for the air-cooled Rotax. The
only manual they have that is worth anything is the 582 Repair manual which
if full of errors. If you put an engine together the way the manual tells
you, there is a good chance you will be doing it again soon.
I am teaching a course on the overhaul of the 503 coming soon. The 447 is
almost identical to that except in size and the timing spec. I will also be
writing a series of articles on the subject for Ultra-Flight Magazine that
will eventual be collected into an overhaul manual. However, for right now
there isn't much out there that is worth anything.

--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Tom Olenik" <olenik-aviation@buyitsellitfixit.com>
There are just a lot of theories instead of facts in there.
For example: They state that new piston clearances should be .002" - .003".
Any experienced mechanic would never set them up much tighter than .003".
They also state that the piston wear out point is .006". If that were the
case, then you would need new pistons in the 582 every 150 hours.
I think both numbers are engineering theories, but have little basis in
actual field experience.

Assuming that all other things are more or less equal, simpler is better.
Antifreeze is a pain, fan belts stretch and break. What you don't have,
can't break.
If the engine is cooled OK by free air, that is best.

Remember you have a pusher not a tractor, in my opinion that means free air
is out of the question. I like fan cooled better because there is no chance
of radiator or pump failure.

| Subject: | Summer Windshield... |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Alderson, James" <James_Alderson@jdedwards.com>
Hello listers,
First, I finally met one of the other list members from my area today (Jim
W). I arrived at the airport at about 12:30 to see a Kolb Mark III sitting
in the hangar area. It was nice to see another Kolb flying in my area (and
when I say another I mean him, cause I still haven't flown mine). It felt
pretty good to show him my Kolb... proud even...
Anyway, to my question. How many firestar II pilots here fly with the full
enclosure and how many fly with a summer windshield? I came from flying a
trike, so I am used to and enjoy the wind in my face type flying. I felt way
too tight in the Kolb with the full enclosure, so I put on the summer
shield. Love it. I like the look of it a whole lot more and with 60-70
degree flying here (at least on the ground and in the sun) right now, I
figured I could just dress for a little warmer. Do most of you guys keep the
enclosure on in the summer or is it a switch when it gets warmer?
Another question, I was out there to taxi test my Firestar II today and I
ended up doing everything but as the traffic and wind were pretty hairy, but
I did do a little bit. The heal brakes.... don't like em... Is there another
solution for the firestar to allow differential braking or is that it. I
have big feet and with running shoes on it was pretty easy to get hung up on
something or another down there... I think I will fly in the summer with the
old converse court shoes rather than jogging shoes. I feel like I need a
little more feel for the rudders and brakes than the thick soles allow me...
is this normal....
Sorry for the long "newbie" email, but I didn't mention a computer virus
once.... well I guess I just did, but it was only to make a point.
James Alderson

Fanbelt failure? How are the Jabiru engines staying cool on pushers? Kirk

James, i will respond to your question even though i have a fs1 kxp...i have
flown with a short windshield
(longer than most) for a couple of years now and i must say here in minnesota it
is
very nice to have that breeze in your face on a warm summer night for 10 or so
days
of the year!!! thats it. now that i have put on a full enclosure (90%) i will never
go back and i took off my helmet (please lets not get started on that helmet topic
thing again...lordy...lordy...lordy...) because it would touch the top of my gap
seal. also if you operate a radio i think it can be a little quieter than with
the
short windshield. i don't know what state you are flying in so as you know that
can
make a difference. here in mn. ralph and i can sometimes get 10 to 15 hrs. in the
winter flying. i can take my full enclosure off but it would require taking out
some
rivets and when i built it i kinda mad it permanent.
thanks,
Gary r. voigt

I have a full enclosure year round. I put a snap vent in each side and that does
the trick very nicely.

| Subject: | Drag strut end fitting |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: RWilliJill@aol.com
Question?
Both the wings to my firestar II are almost complete and rigging them to
the fuselage cage will be the next big hurdle. I had put a very light coat of
epoxy primer
on the 2 drag strut end fittings and tried sliding them into the drug strut
tube. Well, they sure don't go in as far as the plans call for, which calls
for them to protrude 3/4 inches out of the drag strut tube so I figured I
had too much primer. I took it all back off on the last half of the fitting
and it still sticks out 1 1/4." The single rivet
that temporally holds the drag strut to the inboard rib isn't the problem
because the fitting goes a little past that point. The drag strut fitting is
flattened on the end where the small tube is welded. This slightly flattened
portion is what is preventing it from going all the way in. I realize the 3/4
" measurement is approximate because the final drilling for the bolt when
rigging will determine that. The question is, if I have to file either the
steel drag strut fitting or the inside if the aluminum drag strut tube, which
would cause less weakening of the structure. I'm hoping it doesn't have to go
in that far. I looked in the archives and this particular question hasn't
been posed.
Thanks to any one who will respond to this
lengthy question.

I ran into the same thing, and didn't want to remove any steel from the
fitting.............for obvious reasons. I did what you're thinking - very
carefully, watching the alignment, file a little material at a time from the
inside of the aluminum tube with a round file, until the fitting pushes in
nice and snug. I don't believe that it weakens the strut at all.
Ah, I see now that you're saying "drag strut." S'OK....................I
don't recall the problem on my drag struts, only on the wing struts, but the
same would apply. Lar.
