if anyone wants to know how to put really good video on line, they should
visit Craig Baker's web pages. He has got it down pat for RC planes and
events. visit his site at: www.psk560.com He is a really nice guy and I
am sure he will tell you some of his secrets. He provides the videos to the
clubs that hold the events and the pilots for a small donation if they
chose. Ted Cowan.

This is the next draft of the Sport Pilot Photo Article. PLEASE make
comments better photo choices editing errors etc.
I think I have the raw photos form every one but Larry Bourne (that other VW
guy). But if I don't please send me your highest quality copy of those that
I have picked.
Also I have included a photo of a plane I think it is a Kolb Firestar II
that has a blue nose with white stars on it. What is it and who belongs to
it?
The article follows:
Monument Valley 2005
On May 20-22, 2005 we had our third annual Kolb Fly-In at Monument Valley.
It's location is on the Utah/ Arizona border between Lake Powell and the 4
corners area. Some have called it our unplanned and unorganized Fly-In but
everything was perfect. We like it informal and free from a lot of rules.
We used the wonderful facilities at Goulding's Resort. They have a 1st
class facility with a full range of services. Pictured at left of center is
the hotel, restaurant, gift shop and museum. Center is the gas station,
snack shop/convenience store, and car wash. Laundromat is behind it, and
airport to the right and in front. Community services and campground are in
the green area in the canyon. Prices are fair (cheap by air show
standards), service excellent, food delicious. The airstrip is well
maintained (for a dirt/paved runway) with massive cables for hooking our
tiedowns too and auto fuel is close. What more could you ask for ?? Be sure
to try the Navajo Taco in the restaurant.

A Kluster of Kolbs ?? Nawww, too trite, but we did have a good turnout with
Mk III's, FireStar IIs, a FireFlie, and a Kolbra, not to mention a Cessna
C175 and a Mooney.
{John Jung's Flight line Photo here}
More than half the Kolbs at the Flyin actually flew in. The flyers were two
from Texas (a Kolbra- John Williamson and MKIIIc- Gary Haley), one from
Alabama (MKIIIc- John Hauck), one from Arizona (Firestar II- John Jung), and
one from northern Utah (MKIIIc- Boyd Young)
Things got off to a slow start on Friday as people arrived throughout the
day. But those that were there didn't wait.
{Rick Neilsen's photo of ??? here} (The plane is a Kolb with a blue nose
with white stars who is this and what model)
Friday evening as the sun was setting the monuments took on a deep red glow
as a back drop for the Kolbs sitting on the runway at Gouldings.

Back at camp the hanger flying gets into high gear.
{Will Uribe's camp photo here}
Saturday morning the monuments took on that red glow to highlight the
takeoff of John Hauck's Miss P'fer.

As the morning progressed the fun really got going as everyone took to the
air. Those that had planes shared their airplanes and the unique geological
beauty of Monument Valley.

At mid-morning the wind came up and the intrepid pilots returned to earth to
visit and relax. Ninety degree temps sent some into the shade of this
conveniently parked RV's awnings,
{Larry Bourne's camper awning photo}
.......and some into the shade of wings. Could it get any nicer than this
??
{Larry Bourne's sitting under wing photo}
The location couldn't be better. The scenery is breath taking and we have
the air in the Valley all to ourselves except for a few Caravans and Twin
Otters that fly tourists directly in and out of the Goulding Resort. The
airport elevation is 5792 feet ASL and temperatures around the ninety 90
degree mark the density altitude more than 8 thousand feet. The heavily
loaded tour planes struggling into the air make a stark contrast to our
Kolbs, relatively unaffected by the high density altitude.
{Will Uribe's Caravan and Twin Otter Photo here}
When the wind died down in the afternoon and temperatures dropped, we headed
out again. This year it seems like more people headed north to the San Juan
River, near Mexican Hat, Utah for the different scenery there. It was
great.
{Boyd Young's photo of the goosenecks of the San Juan River with the San
Juan State Park overlook}
After flying on Saturday some of us took a 10 min. hike above the camp
ground to view the arch and other scenery.
{Jim Hefner's camp ground arch photo}
Sunday morning most of us met at the Gouldings restaurant for breakfast and
more talk before heading back to reality. Others needing more adventure take
off for a loop around the western states ( Utah, California, Oregon, Idaho,
Wyoming Nebraska Colorado, Kansas, and Okalahoma) before heading home.

All the pictures of the fly-in at monument valley are starting to make
me feel envious. I would ask you all to stop the sharing, but I do enjoy
the pictures.
So, when is the unplanned annual gathering planned for next year?
Did anyone fly attend from southern Arizona?
