They have an excellent selection and seem to have it all in stock all the time. They have a price list and probably would send you one. They also ship all over the world.

    Subject: New Landing gear
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Willamson" <kolbrapilot@comcast.net> Rex and all, The new landing gear legs on TNK Xtra at Sun'nFun are just one of several mods they have done to make it an exceptional airplane. This Xtra is brand new built this last winter at TNK. The gear legs are used to raise the aircraft so it sits a little higher. They are still using 5/8" axels. The wings incidence is set different than the Mark III or earlier Xtra to give more head room. More info should be available from them as soon as they get back from Florida John Williamson Arlington, TX Kolb Kolbra, Rotax 912ULS, 559 hours http://home.comcast.net/~kolbrapilot do not archive

    Subject: Local Kolb owners
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Parker" <parker910@comcast.net> Hello , I was real impressed with the Kolb Firestar 2 with the 503 in it, at sun n fun. And I am now all set to buy a good used one.. I need to do the very last thing now and go ride in a Kolb two seater with a 503 in it for a few touch and goes. So if any one here would be interested in selling me 45 minutes of dual time or tell me where I can go I would certainly appreciate it. I live in Chattanooga Tn and can drive to Nashville , East TN , Macon ,Atlanta Birmingham / Montgomery Al I'm with in about two months of finishing up a frame up restoration on my Champ 7EC so I prefer not to start another project or kit for a good while. .

    Subject: Re: replacing fuel line and UV
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Hauck" <jhauck@elmore.rr.com> I don't know, but I don't think it's the UV because | I've seen in deteriorate inside open ended hangars where its always in the | shade. Tom/Gang: UV is reflective. Reflective UV also causes the damage. One of the reasons we not only use a UV block on the top, but also bottom and sides of fabric aircraft. john h

    Subject: Sail repair tape
    Seal-Send-Time: Mon, 19 Apr 2004 23:59:52 -0400 --> Kolb-List message posted by: "H MITCHELL" <mitchmnd@msn.com> Greetings All, I bought some Dacron Sail Repair tape at the California Power Systems display at Lakeland. It is 2 inches wide, has a rip stop reinforcement and is translucent. It is very thin but I could not tear it by hand. It was ~$6 for 50 feet. I tried a test strip on my refrigerator door (non-porous, irregular surface) for about 24 hrs. It bonded very well. I plan to use it for my wing gap seals. Has anyone else out there tried this stuff?
