another great tripI the photos & descriptions were just outstanding....as
usual. i wonder if any other kit co.(s) could boast of such prodigious x-c
efforts by flyers of their machines? i also follow what's left of the avid flyers
on yahoo & have seen no such evidence from that group. these wonderful
aviation adventurers surely deserve more coverage from the flying media.... looking
fwd to the article developed earlier on the list. thanks again, john wmson,
john hauck & friends for sharing ur incredible airborne journeys. keep it
coming & be safe. john bowman in baton rouge. p.s. can't wait for biglar to join
these outings in his machine & share his "special" viewpoint --"fajitas in
lajitas"! what exactly did u & gary "prepare from ur own food" when there was
no
place to go in that "courtesy van"??

Bob, Larry and All,
The town of Lajitas and the surrounding 25,000 acres was bought in 2000 and
is being developed as the resort. The old town of Lajitas consisted of three
buildings, of which the resort has kept two of them. The resort employs over
300 people and provides employee housing for them. They are the community of
Lajitas. If you want to see more about the resort, log on to their website
at www.lajitas.com.
While we were along the border, I checked in with Gary and he checked in
with me. We did this mainly to point out sites so we would not miss
anything. The ADIZ is for entry into the USA and is on the other side of the
river. You have to meet all of the requirements to cross from Mexico to the
USA. If you are crossing into Mexico you have a similar set of requirements
of entry into the Mexican FIR's.
I hope every one flies their Kolb this weekend and lets us all know about
your flights.

John W/All:
James Tripp and I flew our Kolbs yesterday, late. James flew up to my
airstrip, Gantt International Airport, then we did some visiting with
neighbors getting in hay. They, for the most part, like our little
airplanes and enjoy us flying down into and around the hay fields when
they are working. Buzzed another neighbor, who is also one of my
antique tractor buddies, then across Lake Jordan to another flying
friends grass strip. No one at home, so we flew south to Wetumpka
Airport. Shot a touch and go on the north/south grass strip. From
there to Parker Island in the Alabama River. Privately owned, huge
deer and turkey preserve. We spotted some good sized deer herds, but
no turkeys. Must be a lot of fun shooting these semi-domestic deer
and turkey. ;-( Red Eagle Honor Farm, state detention center for bad
boys, was across the river. Flew over there and landed in one of my
favorite hay fields, freshly cut, to take a short break. Then back to
Wetumpka Airport. On the way I climbed to 4,000 ASL and James to
3,500 ASL. On arrival, throttled back, let the engine cool down a
bit, then hit the mag switch. Turned off everything but the radio and
the strobe lights. Soon as we got over the sleepy field, three "real"
airplanes called for landing at Wetumpka. No sweat. They were using
the 09/27 paved runway and we were shooting to 36, the grass strip.
We both gave local traffic plenty of info on the radio what our
intentions were, and kept them updated as we glided quietly down to a
dead stick landing. James got busy getting his Firestar back on the
trailer for the trip home, and I climbed back in Miss P'fer for the
11.2 sm flight back to Gantt International Airport. Guess we averaged
a landing about every 10 minutes. Really, did not keep up with them.
Flew, enjoyed a beautifully calm evening doing what these little Kolb
aircraft were designed to do.
Take care,
john h

Hey Guys,
Well, after FAA "MIDO" lost my paperwork for two weeks....(DAR
thought it was on it way)
I FINALLY have an inspection date ( tommorro )
I have to trailer it to an airport because my primary FAA inspector insisted
that the DAR witness it TAXI,
even though I already did some slow taxi....I told them I hasn't going to do any
FAST taxi until after the inspection.
Too many stories of people accidently getting airborne.....
Otherwise , I could have set it up in my backyard for the inspection....The
DAR tried to talk the FAA guy into
doing the inspection here, and said it wasn't nessessary to witness the taxi ....But
he was THREATENED by my
FAA primary inspector ( Eldon Griffin ) that if he didn't do EXACTLY what he wanted
that he wouldn't be inspecting
any planes in the future..... The DAR tried to talk me into getting somebody else
to look at my plane...He was scared
pretty good buy the Son of a *%#&%
Hey Big Lar.....my paperwork is takin FOREVER , but I'm getting REAL CLOSE
...Will I get mine in the air before
you ? I will still need more hrs in a few planes before I can get insurance (
Falcon )
Gotta Fly...

Kirk,
Quite a few. When the spoilers are full on a glider will come down like a rock.

There's been a lot of recent talk about making XC (cross-country)
flights, and I have one suggestion that's contrary to what you and
I've probably been taught. Your instructor may say "Maintain your
altitude" -- and if there are any thermals you'll continually be
changing the pitch of the aircraft, and hence its speed. In rising air
you'll lower the nose and speed up, and in sinking air raise the nose
and slow down, in order to "Maintain the Altitude".
This does maintain altitude BUT -- you'll then be spending minimum
time in favorable, rising air, and maximum time in unfavorable, sinking
air. Think about it!
Much more efficient to do the reverse -- slow down & spend max time in
rising thermals, and speed up to get through sinking downdrafts ASAP.
Let the altitude do what it wants, within limits of course.
Naturally this is for VFR flight only -- the controller wouldn't be
pleased if your IFR flight went rollercoastering up & down. But on a
long XC flight it can make quite a bit of difference.
More fun too, and easier on the pilot.

Julian,
Welcome to the list and yes.....I built and still fly a Mk2 and I'm sure I have
the construction manual around here somewhere. I'll contact you offlist once
I find it and we'll go from there.

Russ, much of what you say is inarguable, but during a morning flight
when
the air is sinking across the board, one is stuck with the constant
struggle
to maintain a reasonable altitude. I try not to fight it and end up
low and
slow where the air loses any ability to drop more. After awhile I get
curious
as to where I am and climb above the fields and pastures to look around
for
some bearings.

Kirk,
<<<<<<How many landings does a glider pilot do in a glider with a glide ratio
of
7 to 1 before he soloes?>>>>>>
The answer to your question is plenty. Gliders sink like stones with the airbrakes
extended:-)
I love flying my Kolb but I sure do miss soaring when the temperature is hovering
around 95 and the winds are gusting 15 to 25. Those conditions are all too
common here in North Texas in summer and they are not exactly comfortable to
fly ultralight in. But those same conditions are what gets a glider pilot's juices
going because he knows those days are ripe for thermal flying. There aren't
many thrills that compare to "coring" a decent thermal and climbing at 2000fpm
without a sound but the wind. You really ought to try it sometime.

Jack,
Rocks don't have the option of a 30 to 1 glide ratio. Hardly apples and
apples.

Glider experience definitely gives you an edge. You begin to realize
that an engine can stop anytime. At least in my experience after I got
my glider rating I never took an engine as an advantage. Started to land
at the airport without relying on the engine and began to realize
altitude is you friend.
