If you would like to see some photos of the plane,>>
Hi Jack,
thank you for that. Horrendous pics aren`t they?
The story was sent to me by a mate in New Zealand. There was only a passing
reference to the incident in UK newspapers.
Cheers

--> Kolb-List message posted by: Airgriff2@aol.com
I have received a couple e-mails and it has been mentioned that flights above
and beyond 10,000 ft. require a mode c transponder and we shouldn't discuss
it. One can assume that a pilot may have had one on board the day they did the
flight ? Or we can keep everyone down as achieving the altitude of 10,000
ft AGL PERIOD. I guess I'll keep it at 10,000ft. The certificates will state
that the pilot has achieved flying his Kolb aircraft to an altitude gain of
10,000 feet above the ground.
There also seems to be confusion on what AGL means?
It means that when you looked out of your aircraft to the ground below, there
was nothing between you and the ground but 10,000 ft of air. It does not mean
10,000 ft above sea level (MSL)
Thanks

| Subject: | Old Kolb Kxx Kit & Rotax 503 |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: jerb <ulflyer@verizon.net>
Folks,
A friend recently passed away. He had a Kolb pre 1993 Kxx (FireStar?)
kit. He had all the parts but pulling them together might be
challenge. If the main parts main parts could be pulled together like
fuselage, tail boom all weldments, tubing, spars, pre-assembled ribs, gear
legs, wheels & brakes, fuel tank, what would it be worth?
He also had a Rotax 503 he purchased through LEAF. Can't get to it right
now to determine if its a point or Ducati ignition, also what provision
gear box. I don't think it had been run but can't determine it until it
looked at. Having set for this long the engine should be gone over and new
seals installed. I recall him saying some thing to the effect that LEAF
had screwed him as it was suppose to have been a new engine but when he got
it, he convinced it had been run. Having seen it in the past my gut feel
it has been run for a short period, has point ignition, for now say it has
one carbs, set up for premix no oil injection, and prov. 8 gear box.
Would it be worth purchasing as a trade in to take advantage of the engine
exchange being offered by Rotax or is it worth more just selling it
straight out as is.

Hi Ellery/Kolbers,
I think it's 10,000 MSL. How would one know AGL reliably at that height?
