Hi Mike,
congratulations on getting your permit. Relief isn`t it?
The Xtra/Jabiru combination has at last past its noise test here so after a
bit of fiddling with the exhaust and intakes I should be flying in a week or
two. Fingers crossed
Cheers

Hi Kirk,
No glider pilot with `sufficient thermal fuel` ever, ever, ever, considered
landing. He cerainly can`t institute a `go-round` because he he decided at
400 feet that he has cocked up the approach.

Hi Dennis,
always happy to meet fellow flyers and there are a few Kolbs operating here.
There are a few Americans putting their heads above the parapet again after
9/11 and the tourist numbers are up this year.
Of course the exchange rate doesn`t inspire travel to the UK or to Europe.
Over here they are two separate entities. I never did understand why Lindy
flew on to Paris instead of landing in the Britain.

Shouldn't speculate--but---sounds like a low and slow turn back to
the airport on his first flight in this plane. Herb

| Subject: | Victor 1+ Engine Seizure????? |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: Jack & Louise Hart <jbhart@ldd.net>
FireFlyers & Kolbers,
Finally I found the culprit after removing the head and cylinder. The
cylinder, rings and piston were ok. The wrist pin and crank through
bearings were ok. Next I took off the flywheel cover so I would not have to
detach all the wires as I took the rest of the engine off to work on it on
the bench. When I removed the cover, I discovered the torsional vibration
damper ring that was bonded to a hub on the starter ring web had come loose.
As I started the engine it fell off the hub and acted as a disk brake
between the starter ring web and the inside surface of the
housing.
I called Quebec to see about getting a replacement part, and I was told that
Simonini no longer uses this part on the newer engines. And, I can run the
engine minus the ring without any adverse effects. This is good news, as I
hope to be back in the air this weekend. Also the FireFly will weigh 1.5
pounds lighter than before.
In the near future, I will put up some photos.
Have a good Fourth!

<<<<<I vote I served and I certainly have political opinions of my own which I

the Tooth fairy.>>>>>
Bryan, all
Sometimes we range pretty far afield in our discussions on the list and these discussions
will evolve over time into something that may not seem even remotely
Kolb related. For instance, the glider discussion evolved from a question somebody
posted maybe a month ago about 503 failures. That discussion continued
on to a discussion about the subsequent deadstick landings that resulted because
of the engine failures. You can see how deadstick landings might evolve
into a discussion about gliders among those of us who trained and licensed in
gliders. If somebody has not been following the thread from the beginning and
tunes in a month later, certainly they are going to wonder what it has to do
with Kolbs.
I personally feel that allowing the discussion to evolve is much more interesting
and much more like "real" conversation because people's personalities begin
to show through. You may not agree with the person, but at least you know who
they are and how they think. I don't agree with those who want to close the
Mexican border and patrol it with civilians piloting armed Kolbs, but the Constitution
gives them the right to voice that opinion and technically, they have
the right to post it here too. The irony to that is, if the government had
decided to shut down the borders just two short generations ago, most of us wouldn't
be here now either!
We have a moderator on this list. Let's let Matt decide what should be posted
here and what shouldn't.

Hey Lar
how'sit goin eh. Is it my imagination or does 85psi oil pressure sound a
bit high. It has been a while since I worked on vw's and have had alot of
engines in between but I think there is an adjustment on the oil pump to
bring the pressure down a bit. Or perhaps I am thinking of a different
engine.

Yeah, that's what I thought it was too. Still haven't figure out why a

Today I went back to the FAA with my Airworthiness Cert. in my

Repairmans Cert. He asked me a few questions about the plane....making sure that
it sounded like "I" built it...
and I walked outa there with a "temp repairmans cert" (pending) he said I should
recieve my card in about 120 days.
Things are falling into place....

Hi Woody: Several people have questioned me about this one, so I'll put
it on the List. I put the high oil pressure kit in my engine after several
Baja dune buggy racers told me that a good percentage of the cooling in the
engine is thru the oil. Higher pressure equals more flow equals more
cooling. 85 psi IS high, but when warmed up it should be around 60 which
would be right on target. On the 45 psi fuel pressure, it's a fuel injected
engine with Ford components driven by a custom built computer. Apparently
that's normal for those components.
When I ran the engine prior to its' breaking the input shaft, all was
well........no oil leaks. That's why I'm focusing my efforts around that
new, re-designed input. After I return, of course. :-)

Fellow Kolbers,
Oshkosh is just 26 days away!
Have you made your plans yet? You are all invited to join in the flight
along the lake.
I, along with a few other Kolbs will gather at Sault Ste Marie Muni (KANJ),
MI on Saturday evening 23 July. Then we plan to fly along the south shore of
Lake Superior on Sunday 24 July and land at Ford Airport (KIMT), Iron
Mountain, MI for a late lunch.
Our schedules vary before and after this small gathering but most will fly
into Oshkosh on Monday morning 25 July
More details of my planned flight our on my website (address below).

I think we lost you back in '97 when you went with the VW engine.
But we know you'll finish - or die trying.

Powered MK III
Hi Richard:
I know a guy named Larry Bourne from Cathedral City, CA (near Palm Springs)
who wants to install a VW on his MK III. I'm sure he would really enjoy
talking or writing to you regarding your experiences. Will you share your
address and 'phone number?? If so, I'll pass the data on to Larry who is not
on the net.
