I know it was probably discussed recently but I need to do some research for
our ultralight club. Namely, what, if any difference may we expect when the
alcohol starts dumping into our gas. I can find several studies and
suggestions by others in the field but want to know what this knowledge base
has to say about it. What can we expect and what conditions are going to be
dangerous; What we can do about it. It is going to be all over, everywhere
at one time and this looks like a disaster to air craft of every size. Can
we use something to lesson the problem or neutralize the water effect? Can
we use Marvel Mystery oil in our gas (or oil). Going to the local airports
and filling a can with avgas is out of the question for most. I am not sure
they will even sell it to you like that. (gas can - red -- diesel can -
green -- avgas can - ?. I know a bunch of you are engineers of some sort -
I have heard you blert it out long enough. Now, put your heads together and
tell us for sure and forever, can we use the crap in our tanks on 2 and 4
strokers, etc. Ted Cowan, Alabama. p.s. I already know ROSUCKS already
states NOT to use this in our engines. But what is the ulternative?

Jim,
I'm one of the odd ball guys that uses an Apple computer which are
famous for graphics.
The program I use is called "Graphic Converter".
One little trick for scaling down internet picts is to use only 72
DOTS PER INCH because that is all the resolution most computer
screens can display anyway. The only advantage for higher resolution
is mainly for printing photos.

Ted, I buy avgas as a treat for my Shovelhead. I can't put it directly into
the tank, but I can buy a can of gas and put it in at home.
Lobby your state to keep ethanol out of high test gas. Most people by the
cheapest grade, anyway, so that's where we get the most bang for the buck,
so to speak.

I remember seeing a lot of discussions on this list about this so I asked my
expert. H.L. Cooper owns AZ Ultralights and I asked him. He told me to use
it and not worry about it. I told him that from what I read on the list and
from what is in the Rotax manuals, it shouldn't be used. He said "well
then, I've been wrong for 23 years." Just for your info, H.L.runs an
ultralight airpark and is a full time instructor, builder, and repairer of
broken airplanes. I know he has over 3,000 hours in ultralights and has
rebuilt countless engines, including mine.
Roger Lee and Jim Hefner, you guys live in Tucson --- what do you use?

Flying farmers have been using "tractor gas" for 70 years.
Long before the mogas STC was conceived. I have to admit that
I have always liked the sweet smell of avgas. Cargas is nasty
when it drips on the floor mat. Ruins a good cigar.
If you can come up with an anti-knock additive that works, better
tell the oil refiners. Otherwise we are stuck with ethanol.

Try Sherrill Phillips, he has an older Firestar that is probably very
close to part 103 legal, and he has mentioned selling it.
I think he wants somewhere around $6,000.
I have flown it, it flies nice. It could stand some sprucing up and
detail work, it has a 447 on it.
He lives in East Tennessee, about 20 miles south west of Johnson City
Call him at 423-483-8949

--> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Bickham" <gearbender@bellsouth.net>
Hello List,
I want to replace the Lord engine mounts on Mark IIIC with 912UL. They are going
on 7 years old and looking a bit dry. Not shiny rubber anymore. I searched
the archives and found some threads re engine mounts but no mention of suppliers
that I can see.
Is the TNK the best source for this? I have tried to read the part number off
of them but not having much luck.
Any help would be appreciated.

Great!!!
Hope it rots and you never have to use it.
I flew mine for 59.6 hours over the last 19 days, but it stayed in my
helmet bag. Got to start wearing it and getting used to it. Will
not do me a bit of good if I need it and I am not wearing it.
Did fly over a little water on this flight, but not much in the
desert. ;-)
Take care,
john h

Wish I had known you were there late yesterday afternoon. Probably
flew right over your house.
Landed at Miami, OK, didn't like the looks of the airport. Took off
again and snook into Neosho, Missouri, just at dark and right behind
the thunderstorm. Had a good night's sleep on the floor of the FBO,
but would have rather stayed at your place. ;-)

TNK was the easiest for me. I found them in a Lord catalog but the
industrial supplier wasn't sure about ordering them and could not return if
they were not right. There are three different hardnesses of rubber used on
that size mount. I think the hardest is what is used for the 912.

Thanks for your post Dennis. I agree wholeheartedly with what you said about Adriel's
many talents. He's also one hell of a nice guy!! He's responsible for
getting me into Kolb flying. After I met him and saw his plane, saw his photos
and heard about his flying scenario, I had to have a trailerable Kolb, with
no enclosed cockpit, so I could take great photos like Adriel, although my equipment
(plane and camera) and my photographic talent all pale in comparison
to Adriel's! He's "the man" in my book! He figured out how to combine his many
talents and his love for flying and make a comfortable living doing it, although
it took quite a while for the success and recognition to come when he first
got started.
Since he was looking for reliability, not lots of power, I'm sure the 912S is loafing
along most of the time. It is interesting that he went all the way to
the 912S... seems the 80hp would have been a lot more than was needed and would
have gotten the reliability he was looking for. I'm sure he had a good reason
in mind.
Thanks again to you and Jim H for sharing your experiences with Adriel.

Pete,
My Firefly is kinda of for sale. I say kinda of because Bryan Melborne is
building a new one for me. With all of the recent sales he has a big back log
and my project was set back a bit. It is in Winter Haven Fl and it is on
floats. You can see pictures of it at _www.tnkolbaircraft.com_
(http://www.tnkolbaircraft.com) or _www.skyshops.org_ (http://www.skyshops.org) On skyshops
click on floats then click on Firefly. I keep it in a trailer on a lake and I
have been able to sneak down there every few weeks and do some flying. contact
me direct if you have any questions.

John, good to see you back. Yep, follow the good advice you gave me on BRS.
Know what it feels like and where it is by repetitive checks. Can't check it
if it aint on. Thanks for your best wish that I wasted $150 on a vest I
won't need in the future.

The reason he wanted the 912s was for his "next" airplane. He really didn't
want the -s for the TS, but figured it would be useful in the future.
