You can do it that way, or, what I find a little simpler - since this's how
I've always done it - is to click and highlight the parts you DON'T want,
then go up and click "Cut," assuming you use Outlook Express. The
highlighted part will vanish, leaving you with the edited message. If you
click at the top of the unwanted portion; hold the button down, and pull the
mouse toward you, it'll scroll itself, and highlight a large area very
quickly, as I did with this very long message. I try to do this on most
posts, but, being sadly imperfect, do forget once in a while.

That's one of the great benefits of "Experimental."...............but you'd
BETTER know what you're doing as regards weight and balance, center of lift,
etc. I know - I like to play outside the box, too. If you like the Zenair
high lift airfoil, you might want to check out the "Pegazair" (sp ??) wings
with their automatically extending and retracting leading edge slats. They
look like a dandy toy. Haven't seen anything on them for a while, tho'.
Lar.
P.S. - Go into "Format" at the top of your page, and click "Plain Text."
It'll eliminate the garbage at the bottom of your post that is upsetting
some people. For regular emails, go back to "HTML." Lar.

Hello Kolbers,
I just received these photos from Bill Vincent, a Firestar II pilot at
Quinnesec, Upper Peninsula of Michigan ( Yopper land ).
http://home.comcast.net/~kolbrapilot/ST007.jpg
http://home.comcast.net/~kolbrapilot/ST008.jpg
I love the color changes but don't get to see much of it in my part of
Texas. Thanks Bill.
I met Bill and his wife Anna last July on the way to Oshkosh at Scott
Trask's house. The location is on final approach to runway 16 at Scotty's
Twinstar Patch, Iron Mountain, MI.
Anybody else have some good flying photos from their area? I'll make them
available for viewing if you email them to me.

I just took Vince Nicely (Firestar II owner/list member) for a ride in my
MKIII, we got off the ground in about 300', and then out flying around with
both of us and full fuel, we checked it out and it stalled at about 33
indicated. And I have not yet installed the vortex generators. (next
project) Cruise is anywhere from 55 to 80, top end is around 90, and it
handles great. We landed and got stopped in about 500' of runway, but
didn't use the first 150'.
Just what sort of STOL improvements do you think a Zenair wing will provide?

Hi Richard, Dave and Gang,
Maybe a helicopter should be considered to shorten up the landing distance.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Pardon if I slept thru earlier info on your this, but...
What were you using for gap seal before the book binding tape? I want
to know what the big performance gain is compared to.

Ben,
Before the tape I was using no tape. My bird is newly completed and today I
flew for 2.2 hrs and hit 29.7 hrs total time.
Up till a few days ago I had flown with no control gap seals at all because
I had never taken the time to install the 3M tapes, partly because a fellow
lister that has a Firefly told me he did not notice much difference in
performance with or without the tape, and partly because of my own lazyness.
Anyway, I am hear to tell ya that it makes a very big differance on my Mk-3.
This may be due in part to the fact that my hinge gaps are a little wider
than the plans call for. Hey, don't blame me, I purchased my kit after the
hinges had been located, when I discovered that they were a little off, I
made the decision to leave it alone instead of replacing the rear spar tube.
OK so maybe you can blame me.
Anyway the tapes make a nice handling airplane into an exceptionally nice
handling airplane, and cut down on drag very noticably.
I am sure that the fabric tape method that the plans and Jim and Dondi
endorse will work as good or better than the 3M tape, I just chose to use
the 3M

Paul and gang,
I feel that was one of the better Experimenter issues I have seen, with the
possible exception of the April 98 issue. :-)
It was nice to see Mike Loehle pull down a major award, he is another one of
the good guys in this industry, major kudos Cy.

Paul,
I wouldn't pick on you for that one, but I would warn you to take good care
of that wife of yours, you just made most of the guys on this list wish they
were married to her. Take it from a fellow that also has been bailed out on
occasion by his better half.

Richard,
After flying for 2+ hours today, I headed for my local WalMart for the
Outback Headset Cushion you described the other day.
Sure enough, there they were mislabled as seatbelt cushions just like at
your local store. They even had the choice of white or black. We opted
for black. Thanks a ton for the heads up. When Linda was flying with me
on Wednesday she complained that the headset dug into her head, and my
buddy that flew with me this afternoon had the same problem.

Kolbers,
Flew 2.2 hrs today, most of it with a friend that is thinking about
taking flying lessons.
Had a great time and let him do a lot of the flying. It was a blast
sharing my bird with someone who has a real interest in learning to fly.
He brought his digital camera / video thingy with him and took a lot of
photos and video he promised to put on a CD and VHS tape for me, I hope
to post some when I get them.
I also shot a whole roll of 35 mm film of the plane to try to get some
photos suitable for the completions sections of the magazines. Dropped
the film at Walmart tonight and checked the CD option so I hope to post
some of them to the PhotoShare also.
Anyway, for as crappy as this summer has been weather wise, it has sure
been nice to do some serious Kolb aviating the past few days, this is
living.

I can vouch for that. I can run up to about 4200 RPM if I stop the wheels
against a slight rise on the turf and hold the brakes as snugly as possible.
Otherwise on a flat area I can only get about 3800 RPM before the wheels start
turning.
Another problem I have experienced, which would probably be the same with any
brake system, is that the aluminum gear legs tend to vibrate, or "wobble",
ie. spring fore and aft when applying brakes on hard surfaces. This in turn
starts the tail wheel rod flexing and then the whole plane gets into an up and
down bounce which won't stop until I stop forward motion, or let go of the
brakes. Makes me feel like a bobble head :) Don't have this problem on turf.
When I assembled the brakes (wheelbarrow wheels and go-kart brakes as
supplied by Kolb) I took a lot of time and pain to get the drums mounted onto the
wheel rims symetrically. But all the effort still resulted in having a "high"
spot, so when I roll the plane out of the hangar I can hear the shoes scrape the
drum intermittantly. The quality of the parts are such that I don't think it
can be made any better without major machining and/or modification. Still,
they do the job that Ralph says he wants to do, hold the plane back going down
hill on hard surfaces and safely taxing around other craft.

Moto Tool with the little sanding drum, and take down the high spots. Or if
you have a side grinder, that works good too, low tech, & amazing how much
it helped mine.
