Don't know about the MKII, but I have a set of Old Kolb plans for the
MKIII's rear Lexan enclosure on my web page.
http://www.bcchapel.org/pages/0003/kolb.htm
Maybe that will be some help.

I am. Looks like I'll be assistant camp host. But I do plan to get some
air time in. We also will have the 1/2 scale Wright Flyer there. It was
built by our EAA chapter 658. Pretty neat bird.

Hey John Williamson,
I really enjoyed your Kolb Fly-In pictures you posted last year on your terrific
web site. I am hoping the same shutter bug will inspire you to click away at
this upcoming KOLB Fly-In. It sure inspires us Kolbers that are still in the
building mode to finish up and start making it to some of these great events.
Take care,

slingshot. almost finished building the instrument panel today. only took
about fifteen hours! real nice and functional. still needs some work but
what the heck - more fun, right? Just wish I would quit waking up at three
in the morning wide awake although I get a lot of work done in the cool of
the morning. makes a long day though. glad I dont have to work for a
living. will see ya all there. Ted and Beverly Cowan, Alabama

Subject: | Rotax 503 Intake Manifold for single carb wanted |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Bruce Harrison" <firestarii@hotmail.com>
Hello listers: I've tried trolling for an intake manifold for Rotax 503
Single Carb on various sites on the Internet and have come up mostly empty.
Just thought I'd try a shot at our list of "experimenters."
I have a late model 503 DCDCDI and after comparing experiences with flying a
single-carb 377 and then this engine for the last 50 hours, I have decided I
prefer the single carb. My feeling is that I don't need the extra 4
horsepower as much as I'd like to have the lighter feel on the throttle, a
single throttle and choke cable instead of all the splitters, the slightly
improved fuel economy, and the ability to switch jets in half the time.
Anybody go the other way on this experiment (single carb to dual) and have
the single manifold available? Email me description and price off list
please. Thanks.

Subject: | Lithium vs dielectric grease |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Jon Croke" <jon@joncroke.com>
I checked the archives and couldn't find any info on the following :
The Rotax 912 service manual talks about making good electrical connections
on its electronic module and to avoid leakage currents by using LITHIUM
grease on all wire connections.
I can find DIELECTRIC grease at the automotive store described to be used
for about the same purpose..but not LITHIUM grease.
Are these two greases the same thing or related? Scanning at the internet I
see that lithium grease comes in a lot of flavors and uses beyond electrical
connections...
Are both of these greases good conductors, esp at very low voltages??
(CHT/EGT pin connections)
Thanks for any info on this confusion.

Hi Gang,
Would like some advice from some of the list members who have experience in
working with fiberglass. The nose cone of my MK III has a slight dished in
area in the most obvious place, right on top and in the center of the nose
pod. The depression is about 12 inches long and maybe 4 inches or so wide.
What would be the best way to build this area up and get a good round
contour to match the rest of the nose pod?
Thanks,
John Cooley

Jon, There is a lithium grease that auto mfg. uses in the lamp socket to
seal out moisture. I will look into my inventory to see what's available.
The dielectric silicone compound is used to "insulate" electronic modules
from current sources.

John H has mentioned using Alcor TCP in 100LL to reduce lead fouling. I'm faced
with having to buy 100LL on the way up to the fly-in and was just wondering,
am I going to find that in any autoparts store? I can't remember seeing it anywhere,
but then I haven't been looking either.
Looking forward to seeing everybody -

John
Any depression more than 1/8" deep should be filled with glas cloth & resin
to bring it up to the desired contour. Sand the area with 60 or 80 grit down to
clean structure and build the area with cloth & Aeropoxy resin. After cure I
sand & finish with an automotive 3M finishing putty and their high fill
primer. Sanding with 180, 220 & 350 wet and it's ready for the finish paint.
PS If there is any structural integrity involved, be sure to overlap to good
structure by two inches in all directions. Small depressions can be filled
with a mixture of resin and micro beads (glas beads). No strength to this
mixture. Remember even epoxy will peel of a smooth surface. Roughen it up so
the
epoxy has a chance to grab the surface it's attached to.
Good luck
Bob, Wichita
