Refined designs, modern materials, easier to build kits, better engines and props and instrumentation than even 20-30 years ago. At the local airport--the 4 CFI's had no clue about Sport pilot--one was a recent graduate of North Dakota State. My wife made a presentation to the local club and they were amazed at the performance of the 912 and 912S--the low cost of purchase and rebuild and minimal maintenance--remember they are comparing it to Lycomming and Continental engines (heavy). My experience transitioning pilots shows me they should understand the flight characteristics of very light planes, high lift / drag airfoils and the required use of rudder. You could also talk about the similarities--be prepared to inform and correct some incomplete beliefs.

Subject: Kolb-List: A Christmas Greeting, somewhat off UL flying --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Bob N." OK, I gave y'all the option of deleting. This is Christmas Eve. Why don't we all set aside our petty (?) grievances, just for a coupla days, and think back to the most happy times we've had..and may still have...in building and flying our various machines, of whatever type? I'll bet that none of you carry your differing opinions aloft! As one of the listees said a few years ago, Just Go Flying. Opinions are like armpits, there are two of them, and maybe they both stink.

Subject: Kolb-List: Haalp! --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Bob N." Today I rec'd via the famed U.S. FailMail Service(?) a be-draggled and torn envelope, no enclosure, addressed to me, postmarked Carrizozo, NM. Looked just like the letters that used to flow though the IBM sorters in POs. They kept a large basket under the sorters to catch the pulverized mail. To the sender: many thanks, and a great Christmas back to you.
