I know it did not have alcohol but not certain what it used for octane enhancement. I was not aware of the upcoming NY ban on MTBE but it does not surprise me. This is the place where legislators actually believe they can tax us into prosperity and simultaneously ask why everyone is leaving NY.

We then group up in squadrons of likeness (speed, radios, etc.) fly N to Dodge Co. (Juneau), call the Red Barn at Oshkosh for a window of time and give them an account of how many. We might have 2 or 3 Kolbs in the group. We have several groups going up at different times and we organize this through several local clubs. Our club is Fox Valley Flying Club (foxvalleyflyingclub.com) and usually utilize e-mail and club meetings for time schedule. We always welcome all ultralights to join in. See ya on the south 40...

Keep the pulse line short 12" or less and use pulse line not the thinner wall fuel line. Is there something I and Kolb missed? jerb >> Jerb, I must have missed something. I have a piece of 3/4'X3/4" X1/16" alum. angle that came with the engine kit. I cant figure out what it is needed for. It is NOT for the muffler mount. It calls for 1/8" angle. Any ideas? Thanks for your Input in the past, I appreciate your help.

Must be something new.

Have not heard from > him. John and Possum, I'm listening. If the weather is decent I will leave Etowah, TN for Etowah Bend, GA as early as possible on Saturday morning. I've been planning and watching the weather forcast for a trip to Lock Haven, PA next week. I am planning to leave TN on Monday morning, make a quick stop in London, KY, then on to 4OH4 for the night. Tuesday I plan to leave OH for Lock Haven to attend the Sentimental Journey Fly-in at LHV. Thursday I will be leaving LHV, make a quick stop near Philadelphia, then head for home. If all works out I will have time to take a shower, get a good nights sleep, and kiss my wife before I head to Tullahoma for their fly-in.

Steven G/All: Looks like it is a go as long as I can see where I am going. Will wait for Sat morning to make the final decision, but right now looks ok, typical summer weather. Good to see another Kolber getting out and flying. You have a pretty agressive schedule, but I am sure you can do it. Have fun and fly safe. Looking forward to seeing you Saturday at Etowah Bend. A neat place to fly, especially the river. Couple years ago I caught a couple deer standing in the middle of the river. Startled them. They stood frozen in place until I had flown by. Could count the whiskers on their chins. Had a frightening thunderstorm this afternoon about the time I got back from town. Terrific winds, but not much rain. Would not have wanted to be flying anywhere near this thing. Would have had my doubts that the traveling tie downs would have held the Mark III. Take care, john h DO NOT ARCHIVE
