    Subject: Re: Main Spar Clevis Pin Safety Pin
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Beauford" <beauford@tampabay.rr.com> Brother Diebel... I think a lot of the clevis pins move around some in flight... either to rotate some, or slide back and forth some... or both. Mine do... especially on the strut fittings. The archives should have a fair amount of material on this subject from past discussion strings I can remember. >From what I have read, some pin movement is a normal thing, although I have heard of vibration eventually enlarging the holes to the point that they required re-drilling and a larger clevis pin being fitted on high-time planes. I never heard of an installed safety pin falling out in flight, but I have heard of clevis pins falling out when someone neglected to install the safety pin. (As I recall, that incident was not on a Kolb). Assuming you used the right size bit to drill yours, there should not yet be enough slop to be a problem in your new ship. The clevis pins should be tight enough not to allow the attachment fittings to "rattle" yet loose enough to go in easily. If you are concerned about yours being too loose, why not call Travis at TNK, describe the way your clevis pins are moving, and see what he thinks...? Personally, I use an AN washer on the clevis under my safety pins just to make certain there is never any direct contact between the safety pin and the fittings should the clevis slide some... I've heard that quite a few folks do this... I also make a point of looking closely at the clevis and safety pins for signs of wear, cracks or unusual grooves every time I install 'em. Worth what ye paid fer it... Good luck...

    Subject: Re: Main Spar Clevis Pin Safety Pin
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Ralph" <ul15rhb@juno.com> Ed and others, The main clevis pins on the cage moves both ways in flight no matter which way it's installed. I fold my Firestar on every flight and put it in with the safety ring facing front so I can see it. I put an AN nut that fits over the pin to take up the slack. On the subject of the pins wearing or the fittings widening over time, I have not noticed this on my plane. I inspect this often, and mine are very tight after 19 years of flying.

Ed and Group, I have been on the list for 8 years and flying Kolbs for 9. The only case of that pin comming out that I can recall, was when the pilot left the pin in his pocket. He got distracted by people asking him questions when he set the plane up. Be assured that the rotation is normal. My concern has always been that the pins are installed, not the position. My most minimal preflight always involves looking at the safety pins. -------- John Jung Firestar II N6163J Surprise, AZ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=8932#8932

Is my concern legit? > > > > Ed Diebel (447 Firefly ) > > Hi Ed, There was a very long thread that I started last year in regard to safety pins. Try putting your pins in from the Rear. I know that normal aircraft protocol is that all bolt heads forward but in my Firefly the pins want to walk forward. That will keep pressure on the head of the pin and maybe they wont rotate On the other hand, I use a self lock castle nut and AN bolt followed by a steel AN safety pin (not stainless). This requires about 5 extra min. but to me it is worth it. Keep in mind that as far as I know, there has never been a failure of a properly placed clevis and pin on a Kolb. The original design is quick simple and reliable. I am sure if anyone knows of a failure they will respond. Steve FF#007

    Subject: Safety pins
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: Richard Girard <jindoguy@gmail.com> I'm new to the Kolb list and Kolb flying, too, but I've been flying hang gliders since 1974 so I have a bit of history with safety pins. There are two "fixes" for rotating pins that I have used. One is to change to a circular style pin, like the ones used for key rings. Bend the starting end out slightly so it is less of a PITA to get the clip started in the clevis pin hole. The second is to wire or zip tie the safety pin to a nearby structure and make the lead short enough that the pin can only go in and remain with the clip end down. -- Rick Girard "Pining for a home on the Range"

    Subject: Vocations, avocations, and (NOT) CUTTING THREADS IN BOLTS
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "David Kulp" <undoctor@rcn.com> I enjoyed reading the thread about vocations and avocations (other than flying Kolbs). It adds personality to otherwise plain script and makes the list more human, so I'd like to contribute info about me. I also feel compelled to comment on the recent thread about cutting more threads on aircraft bolts. I've driven 18-wheelers since about 1965 mostly throughout the eastern 24 states. I have considerable experience hauling overdimension and overweight loads and have always enjoyed the added challenges that come with the turf. The company I drove for for 30 years folded so I took an early retirement and now work one day a week for a regional carrier just because I enjoy it. I ride motorcycle for most of my transportation needs and have almost 77K on my 2001 Honda ST1100. I've ridden in all the lower 48 except MO (seem to miss it all the time), through Canada from Manitoba out to the west coast of Vancouver Island (Long Beach, which is LOOOOOONG) and up to the Yukon Terr. By far my best trip was on my BMW K100LT from Lansdale, PA to the Haul Rd.through the Atigun Pass in the Brooks Mt. Range in AK, logging 11,014 miles in about 20 days. I had a dog named Toots who rode with me for 15 years and had over 75,000 miles on my scoots when she died. She was on TV and many newspapers and mags and rode from Cocoa Beach, FL to Lansdale, PA in one day; 8:30 AM to 3:30AM. Still miss her!!! A BELATED WORD ABOUT CUTTING THREADS IN BOLTS I feel guilty for not posting this earlier in case someone who reads it may save themselves some trouble. In 1990 I bought an underconstructed Chicken Hewk, built by Pacific Aviation in Bellingham, WA. One Sunday, a week after I soloed, an August thunderstorm was moving in so at 1,200' AGL I turned to land. As soon as I completed my turn I encountered a severe downdraft (a fellow flying nearby said I dropped about 30') and when I hit the bottom I felt something pop and found there was no back pressure on the stick. When I got out of the hospital and trailered the wreckage home I discovered that both the Teleflex push-pull cables which were used for the ailerons had broken where they had adjustment nuts at the stick. I called Teleflex and since my house was only a couple of miles from the factory an engineer asked to come and look at it. He told me that the cables are definately not made for aircraft, only the throttle and clutch of a boat. He showed me how they both fractured through the thread roots which are cut into the adjustment rod at the end. He said the thread root of a cut thread is a weak point like the chip on the edge of a piece of glass and that aircraft threads are rolled in, which compresses the material and provides a rounded thread root. He also showed me that the cross section of the one cable end was polished half way through and told me that the plane had been flown with the adjustment rod fractured half way through for a while before my catastrophe. I hope this has been helpful. I'd also like to read more about other's sidelines and interests. Dave Kulp Bethlehem, PA Ultrastar

    Subject: Official Kolb-List Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Listers, Please read over the Kolb-List Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) below. The complete Kolb-List FAQ including the Usage Guidelines can be found at the following URL: http://www.matronics.com/FAQs/Kolb-List.FAQ.html Thank you, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator [ Note: This FAQ was designed to be displayed with a fixed width font such as Courier. Proportional fonts will cause display formatting errors. ] This FAQ can also be viewed in HTML online at the following address: http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm ************************************************************ ******* LIST POLICIES AND FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ******* ************************************************************ PLEASE READ. This document contains Kolb-List policies and information for new and old subscribers. Understanding the Kolb-List policies will minimize problems for the Administrator, and will help keep the Kolb-List running smoothly for all of us. **************************************** *** How to Subscribe and Unsubscribe *** **************************************** Simply go to the Web Page shown below and enter your email address and select the List(s) that you wish to subscribe or unsubscribed from. You may also use the handy "Find" function to determine the exact syntax of your email address as it is subscribed to the List. Please see the complete instructions at the top of the Web Page for more information. The Subscribe/Unsubscribe web page is: http://www.matronics.com/subscribe Note that you will receive TWO conformation emails regarding your subsciption process. The first verifies that your subscription/unsubsciption request was received, and the second confirms that the process has been completed. You should receive the first email within a few minutes of your request. The second conformation will arrive in less than 24 hours. You cannot post until you receive the second conformation email message. ***************************** *** How to Post a Message *** ***************************** Send an email message to: kolb-list@matronics.com Your message will be redistributed to everyone currently subscribed to the List. ***************************************************** *** SPAM Fighter - You Must be Subscribed to Post *** ***************************************************** When a new post is received by the system, the From: line of the message is checked and compared against the current subscription list. If the email address is found, the message is passed on to the List Processor. If the email address isn't found in the current list of subscribers, it is dumped. This serves to very effectively thwart 99% of the SPAM that gets posted to the Lists. Remember, however, that the syntax of your email address is very important with regard to the configuration of your email application such as Outlook or Eudora. For example, the following two email addresses may be functionally equivalent, but only one would pass the Matronics Email SPAM test depending on which was syntax was subscribed to the given List: smith@machine.domain.com smith@domain.com Either email address syntax is alright, just be sure that you configure your email application to match *exactly* the address you've subscibed to the List. ***************************************************************** *** Enclosures Stripped Out - Can't Get a Virus From the List *** ***************************************************************** Any enclosures that are posted to the List will automatically be stripped off, and ONLY the plain/text portion of the message will be forwarded to the List. Please configure your Email application to send Plain Text Only, and disable any "Quoted Printable" or "HTML" encoding whenever possible. Because enclosures are stripped out of incoming posts to the List, the likelihood of getting a virus from the List is extremely small. If you do receive a message that appears to be from the List, and it does include a virus, it is very likely that it was sent *directly* to you from someone on the List who has a virus. This is a specific kind of virus, and you should try to inform the sender, if possible. The best protection against viruses is a good virus protection program such as Norton Antivirus. State of the art in virus protection today's world gives maximum protection with little or no negative impact on the computer system. You can't afford to be without a good virus protection program these days. Note that some limited enclosure posting is now enabled on a number of Lists. Allowed types include .jpg, .gif, .txt, .pdf, .xls, and a few other similar types. ******************* *** Digest Mode *** ******************* Each day, starting at 12 midnight PST US, a new 'digest' will be started. This digest will contain the same information that is currently appended to the archive file. It has all of the headers except for the "From:" and "Subject:" lines removed, and includes a message separator consisting of a line of underscores. Each day at 23:55 PST US, the day's messages as described above will be combined and sent as a single message to everyone on the digest email list. To subscribe to the digest list, use the same subscription web form described above, and just select the Digest version of the List. http://www.matronics.com/subscribe Note that you *can* be subscribed to both the realtime and digest versions of the List at the same time. This is perfectly acceptable. Now some caveats: * Messages sent to "kolb-list-digest" will be forwarded to the standard email list. In other words, you cannot post messages only to the digest List. * If you are subscribed to both the regular List and the digest List, you will receive the realtime postings as well as the digest at the end of the day. * If you reply to the digest email, your message will be forwarded to the normal list associated with the digest. Important Note: Please change the subject line to reflect the topic of your response! Also, please *do not include all or most of the digest in your reply*. **************************** *** List Digest Browser *** **************************** An archive of all the List Digests can be found online in either plain text or HTML format. These archives contain the exact Digest that was posted to the Digest email list on the given day. The Digest Archives can be found at the following location: http://www.matronics.com/digest ***************************************** *** The "DO NOT ARCHIVE" Message Flag *** ***************************************** At times, your message may concern something that is revelent only to a very small number of persons or to a limited area, and you may not wish to archive it. In such a case, simply put the following phrase anywhere in the message: do not archive Your message will not be appended to the archive, but will be sent to List email distribution as normal. ********************************************** ***** READ THIS - Automatic Unsubscribes ***** ********************************************** Note that if your email address begins to cause problems such as bounced email, mailbox is filled, or any other errors, your address will be promptly removed from the List. If you discover that you are no longer receiving messages from the Kolb-List, go to the following Web page, and look for your email address and a possible reason for your removal. The Matronics Email List uses utility called the "Email Weasel" that automatically looks though the day's bounced email for addresses that caused problems due to common things like "user is unknown", "mailbox full", etc. If the Email Weasel removes your email address from the Lists you will find record of it at the following URL: http://www.matronics.com/unsubscribed If the problem listed on the web site above has been resolved, please feel free to resubscribe to the Lists of your choice. ******************************* *** List Member Information *** ******************************* If you have not done so already, please email me your phone numbers and paper mail address in the following format: smith@somehost.com Joe Smith 123 Airport Lane Tower, CA 91234-1234 098-765-1234 w 123-456-7890 h Please forward this information to the following email address: requests@matronics.com I have a file of such things, that I typically use to contact you when there are problems with your email address.

You won't find any PopUpAds, flashing Banner ads, or any other form of annoying commercialism on either the Email Messages or the List web pages associated with the Matronics Email Lists. Every year during November I run a low-key, low-pressure "Fund Raiser" where, throughout the month, I ask List members to make a Contribution in any amount with which they are comfortable. I will often offer free gifts with certain contribution levels during the Fund Raiser to increase the participation. The gifts are usually donated by companies that are themselves List members. Your Contributions go directly to supporting the operation of the Lists including the high-speed, business-class Internet connection, server system hardware and software upgrades, and to partially offset the many many hours I spend running, maintaining, upgrading, and developing the variety of services found here. Generally Contributions range from $20 to $100 and are completely voluntary and non-compulsory. I ask only that if person enjoys the Lists and obtains value from them, that they make a Contribution of equal magnitude. Contributions are accepted throughout the year, and if you've just subscribed, feel free to make a Contribution when you've settled in. The website for making SSL Secure Contributions is listed below. There are a variety of payment methods including Visa and MasterCard, PayPal, and sending a personal check. If you enjoy and value the List, won't you make a Contribution today to support its continued operation? http://www.matronics.com/contributions Thank you! Matt Dralle Email List Administrator ****************************************************************************** Kolb-List Usage Guidelines ****************************************************************************** The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the Kolb-List. You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein. Failure to use the Kolb-List in the manner described below may result in the removal of the subscribers from the List. Kolb-List Policy Statement The purpose of the Kolb-List is to provide a forum of discussion for things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established: - Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc. - THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it. - Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and responses. - Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address, aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary space in the archive. - DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the web page or FAQ first. - If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it easy to find threads in the archive. - When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive can not be overstated! - When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the "reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your response to the original poster. You might have to actively address your response with the original poster's email address. - DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large. - When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly contribute something valuable. - Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing. - Occassional posts by vendors or individuals who are regularyly subscribed to a given List are considered acceptable. Posts by List members promoting their respective products or items for sale should be of a friendly, informal nature, and should not resemble a typical SPAM message. The List isn't about commercialism, but is about sharing information and knowledge. This applies to everyone, including those who provide products to the entire community. Informal presentation and moderation should be the operatives with respect to advertising on the Lists. ------- [This is an automated posting.]

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: kuffel@cyberport.net DVD asks: <<don't need the "tube" because the bulkhead fitting is forward of the nose about 7/8" and should be in undisturbed air?>> As in most things aeronautic, "not exactly". 7/8" in front of the wing or nose cone the air is relatively undisturbed *relative to the surface*. In other words, almost static. Unfortunately, what you need to measure is air undisturbed relative to the ground (+/- wind of course). The general rule is to reach such air you should be as far away from the nearest surface as the radius of curvature of that surface. This effect caused a very low and nervous first flight for a friend in his new Mark III. He had mounted a commercial combined static/pitot probe on the front of his nose cone. It was about 6 " long which is more than enough for a wing mounting but in front of the much larger radius nose cone put it in stagnant air. The resulting low pitot pressure had him thinking he was on the verge of stall all the way around the pattern when it turns out he was doing over 80 mph. The good news is you don't have to abide by the "general rule" to get useful, repeatable airspeed indications. The airplane will stall at the same indicated airspeed at the same g loading every time. Just don't expect the airspeed to be accurate or the same error through out its range. Use a GPS to find out the actual speed of your 1 g stall and then use the GPS to find out which indicated airspeed is 1.3 times the stall speed. This indicated speed is then your normal approach speed (says the FAA). My friend increased the range of his indicated airspeeds by disconnecting the static part of the commercial probe and using the interior of the nose cone as his static source. This worked fine except for the errors in caused in his altimeter..... Tom Kuffel Whitefish, MT Building Original FireStar
