The Kolb Firestar has been in production since 1985. In 1990 some styling
changes were introduced resulting in the KX series. The KXP is the KX with a
stronger wing to accommodate the more powerful Rotax 503. The KXP has 7 ribs
per wing vs 5 for the KX and original firestar, as mentioned previously. What
I have not seen mentioned on this topic is that the KXP also has a stronger
drag strut arrangement than the KX.
I have a 5 rib KX and it does have the stronger drag strut center brace

Geo,
Could you please describe the difference in the drag strut
arrangement between the KX and the KXP Firestar?
I am aware of the changes that were made from the early Ultrastar
arrangement but not the Firestar.
Thanks,
Gene

I have had mine registered and N-numbered for about a year or so. Got a DAR
out of Enterprise to check it out and do the airworthyness inspection. Cost
a bunch of money, about four hundred bucks but it was worth it. He checked
it out, signed it off, gave me limitations of 25 miles and 40 hours to fly.
He was under the assumption it was new and not flown. Amateur Homebuilt
complete with my certification of repairman. worth every penny. flew the
time off, had a licensed pilot with tail dragger endorsement sign it off in
the log book and it was good to go. (oh yeah, he flew it off, yeah, right)
Every licensing section should have a roll of toilet paper with it for all
the crap you gotta go through! Sixty years old, been flying ultralites for
twelve years, have built and/or rebuilt six Kolbs and NOW I gotta be
licensed to fly and WORK on one. wow, who wodda thunk. ted cowan, alabama
