When you click the button to make a TinyURL, it will produce the short one. It even puts it on the windows clipboard in place of the one you had so you can just paste it in the message you were writing. As for "how" they do it, I assume they just store the address you give them, and link it to the short one they gave you. I assume these time out at some point, but I can't find anything on the site that mentions it.

When I built an aqualung, from a plan in Practical Mechanics, they hadn`t invented wet suits. Not in the UK anyway. There were some vague stories about a marvellous new suit available in the USA. In the meantime we had `dry suits` and wore a pile of clothes underneath. I remember surfacing covered in pretty patterns caused by the pressure on the creases in the trousers I used to wear.

Would like to see drawings/plans or photos if anyone is folding wings and pulling it home. >> Tom - I was in the same situation - could not find a hangar to rent at my local airfield. So I posted an ad on the airport bulletin board offering to share hangar costs with anyone willing to fit my plane in the unused floorspace of their hangar. I emphasized the fact that my Mark-III takes up only ONE SIXTH of the width of a typical hangar, when folded. And to sweeten the deal, I even offered to pay DOUBLE the hangar rent rate for my spot. In other words, if my plane occupies a sixth of the floorspace, I would be willing to pay that owner a THIRD of his monthly hangar rent. This is possible only because of the Kolb's unique folding wing feature, which allows my Mark-III to park in only 6.5 feet of hangar width. Within a month, a guy contacted me, willing to "sell" me his unused hangar space - I now share a hangar with a prisitne 1952 Pacer. So, for being willing to fold/unfold my wings each time I fly, I get to store my plane in a hangar at the airport and pay one-third the cost of a normal hangar rate. A reasonable tradeoff, in my opinion.

John have you ever considered writing a book about your flying adventures? You have a great way of expressing your experiences including your disappoints and rewards, you make the reader feel like he is going along on the adventure. As you said in the November 1994 article "not everyone can take these trips because they don't have the money, time,qualifications or whatever";your book would give these people an opportunity to enjoy the adventures. I would be the first one to buy the book !

Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate that. Bill, hard to believe it has been nearly 11 years since I made that 1994 flight. Time sure is flying. As far as I know, that flight has never been duplicated, nor has it ever been out done. I have a feeling, no one will ever out do that one.
