Sorry I missed the first flight, but was hauling JD's out of TN and MS, all weekend. Am anxious to see the finished product. Dave's MKIII is configured like mine. There is another MKIII in Lucedale, MS, that is also configured like Miss P'fer, with the main gear moved forward of the normal position, modified by John Cooley. Congratulations! john h MKIII/912ULS

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "pat ladd" <pj.ladd@btinternet.com> cant believe you guys are putting your birds away for the winter >> Hi All, I wish that our seasons were as clearcut as your seem to be. I have not been able to fly for the last 2 weeks but am reluctant to actually lay the old girl up as there MIGHT be a few more decent days to come. We dont get the benefit of many cold clear windless days, the winter tends to be rain, wind and clag but you never know it MIGHT be OK on Saturday so I wont lay her up just yet. The clocks went back last weekend, that is another variable in the equation which makes flying a little more unlikely. Still waiting for Permission to Test Fly the Xtra as the weather deteriorates, but she looks very smart and uptogether and keen get some wind under her wings.

If you want to catch a Polar Bear you take some garden peas and a saw. With the saw cut a hole in the ice and when the bear comes down for a pea, kick him in the icehole!

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Gherkins Tim-rp3420" <rp3420@freescale.com> Kolbers, An Update: I was just trying to catch up on my emails from the list and noticed that Rick N. asked about Uncle Craig. I'll share a quick update- We are painting the nose and flap and then reassembling the Mark III Xtra for flight. All we have to do is mount the tail, bolt seats in and give it a good go over. The heat is finaly starting to break here in the desert and we are now serious to get flying this winter. My Firestar II has its wings masked and is waiting to spray some color on them. Once that is done all I need to do is settle on what type of oil to run in the 503, break the engine in, bolt the wings on and fly.

Ralph flies his in the winter , but he told me he only has to trailer it one mile away.......and he said he STILL washes it down when he gets it back home.....

As before I'm very interested in flight speeds with that cowled Extra. Also good to hear that you are getting close on you Firestar II. For those that haven't seen these airplanes, they set new standards for innovation and quality construction. Now that Craig and Tim have been heard from what about Duncan McBride?

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: ElleryWeld@aol.com Thanks for your concerns Gary I have my own design of skis I am not copying anyone else's so they might not work for you even though I have been using them and I am not reliable for someone else's installation or experience of the use of skis just trying to be a nice guy and help others out that might not have the tooling or knowledge of how to get into winter flying without spending a minum of $800.00 for a pair of skis I realize there are a lot of people out there this day and age looking to nail another lawsuit so if you put it that way I will just weld the frames together and let you install the bottom skins and make up your own cables and bungies and do your own rigging its your ass in the sling not mine and I had better let this go in to the archives so no one can say I said it will work Have a nice winter Ellery
