I must have it by January 31 2007, if I am to be given credit for my ASC rating. That means I only have one flying season left to complete the process. The USUA has requested more time to meet the requirements. If you would also like more time you can comment on the proposal to the FAA. If you are interested, start by going to the USUA web site and click on the LATEST NEWS tab. Then click on Petition Issued Docket Number 7-5-05 Tab. That will take you to a page, that talks you through the comment process. The more requests for the extension they receive, the better the chances they will comply.

This kid obviously has no idea what he is doing or and has no concept of CG. With the engines rear mounted behind his body like that, it would never fly, it would just pitch him into forward circles probably breaking his neck before he ever left the ground. Michael A.

If not, wewill tent camp down in the tent camp area. Soon as we confirm this,then the other folks that are coming in with RVs will know where themajority of the tent campers and folks that fly in are going to be.We like to get as many of the attendees as possible camping as closetogether as possible. Part of the Kolb family thing at MV, ya know. 3-John W, Gary H, and I are planning on stopping off at Moab again. We camped out on the tarmac for three days last year with Jim Hefner. We would like to know if anyone else is interested in camping with us for a few days. This will give those that may be driving to Alvord a chance to make some road miles while the "birdmen" do a little flying and messing around the Moab area. John's / Gang, Happy New Year to all!! At this point, I am planning to bring the Firefly and trailer to MV, barring any unforeseen events. I may also go up to Moab again with you guys, but at this point can't commit to that right now. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at MV again in May. I'm headed for China on the 18th for 2 months, so I won't be following the Kolb list regularly, but I plan to check email at least weekly if possible. Drop me an email if you need to reach me.

One is right close to your hangar (Ken ?) and the other is my friend, Ron Lee, who you met recently at Ryan when he was flying with Ken. Ron is finishing up his 701 now and should be finished in time to have the bugs out before flying to MV. You should talk to Ken. Should be a nice 3-some to fly up to MV together.

It is about $20 at Spruce or Lockwood. Can't say I recall ever seeing anyone run one of the two outlet pumps on a SC engine with one of the ports plugged or the two outlets siamesed together. Might be OK, but then again, there could be some arcane mismatch in pressure or flow or somesuch using the 2 carb pump into 1 carb... Since the "correct" pump costs so little, I'd be tempted to just go ahead and get one... that plugged extra port under pressure or additional tee plumbing would be just one more thing to worry about. Mebbe you can sell the new 34b to someone with 2 carbs...

Do you have a way to contact these two gentlemen? Roger Lee JIM HEFNER wrote: --> Kolb-List message posted by: "JIM HEFNER" Hi John, My wife and I should be flying up this year. Red, White, Blue with Stars Kolb Mark III Classic, 912S. Anyone in Arizona want to fly with us? We are coming up out of Tucson. Roger & Lynn Lee ------------------- Roger, there will most likely be 2 Zenith 701 912S's flying up from Tucson. One is right close to your hangar (Ken ?) and the other is my friend, Ron Lee, who you met recently at Ryan when he was flying with Ken. Ron is finishing up his 701 now and should be finished in time to have the bugs out before flying to MV. You should talk to Ken. Should be a nice 3-some to fly up to MV together.

Is there also any way to interface engine sending units? I'm not really sure. Does an EIS monitoring system change analog at the sender or at the panel? Vic do not archive Vic Peters ----------- DeLORME makes a gps that plugs into a serial port on a lap top or palm...the one I have has the name Earthmate Hyperformance gps receiver.. and will work on DeLORME mapping software... there are probably others. It seems that some of the newer palms have a gps built in. I have used the garmin pilot lll and it worked very well.. But I have been spoiled with the larger screen on the 196, it works wonders in the air,,, and with the street mapping software it works wonders in the car.. Coming through the spaghetti bowl in Portland my wife turned to me and said that the thing just paid for itself. I have not yet bought the navitagable waters maps.. however color on the 296 may be nice...
