The talk of Lasers recently made me start thinking about those, which led to the other plane that I've looked at for years, a Sonerai. As it turns out, I just bought a Sonerai project that I plan to convert for my single rotor test bed. Bottom line is that I still have the SS airframe, which has been disassembled, and stripped of fabric and Lexan. It needs to have a few tubes replaced (too many holes drilled for trim tabs), and at least one cracked weld repaired. The nose was smashed during hurricane Ivan, and one of the gear legs was bent when I got the plane. I have a new nose, two new gear legs, a 4x8 sheet of Lexan, and a new covering kit (no silver or paint), along with some misc items like tubing, rivets, and motor mounts. There is no engine, on instruments. I'd like to get somewhere in the neighborhood of $10k for this, so I won't feel like I lost too much money on this whole deal. If someone wants it, great. Otherwise, I'll end up stashing it at the hanger, and maybe I'll finish it some day. Cheers, Rusty (just don't say it Dennis) ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:56:23 PM PST US From: possums Subject: Kolb-List: Kolb in the Water --> Kolb-List message posted by: possums I see somebody's Kolb went in the water in S Fla. # N803?? - No floats CBS channel 46 News - Atlanta TV Not mine this time.
