The system was not strong enough for landing loads on the gear. It's now about ready to go on land gear. I had to send the floats back to Full-Lotus to be repaired. Of course when they got the floats, they told me to throw them away and start over... (ouch) So the brand new floats should be here next week (yay!) Anyway, one thing I noticed while flying is that the intercom makes so much noise in the headsets that you can't hear anything. It's almost better to leave the headsets behind. The noise seems to be electronic. It is certainly coming from the headsets and it increases in volume when the engine speed increases. Does anyone have a solution? It's just a cheap intercom, but I didn't really want to buy a new one if I didn't need to. If I do need a new one, what do you folks recomend? Thanks!

While the beautiful fall colors of Michigan likely won't quite be at their peak, there should still be plenty of great scenery to enjoy. We'll rendezvous and start the tour at Arnold Field near Croswell MI, then circumnavigate the Michigan Thumb counter-clockwise, following the coastline northward with several stops for fuel and one for a pizza lunch. The tour turns inland at Sebewaing and pilots will depart the tour for their respective home bases from either there or the last planned stop at Marlette. You do NOT need to be a member to join us. While there are many aircraft types that will be accompanying the tour, we will have between four and six Kolbs flown by our members. Any of you here on the list who would be interested in joining us would be welcome, you don't need to be a member of the club. However, to be part of the flight there is a small fee to cover the lunch and expenses of a volunteer ground crew's who will follow the flight with a recovery vehicle, a gas truck, safety equipment, cold drinks, and so forth. If interested, please check out the club's website for more information or to register for the trip.
