    Matt What happened here? "Just think about it for 2 seconds. Is your engine manufacturer going to make a recommendation of how often to inspect your flying surface cables, especially being that they have no idea what type of plane it will be installed in ? This one is a no brainer." "Effective immediately, "Max Stafford" has been banned from posting to the Matronics Lists. Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator" This guy is still attacking the list although in less obnoxious ways.

Part # 7435 CABLE LUBER SYSTEM - $17.95 "Prevent cable freezing and extend cable life by lubricating cable with the "Cable Luber" system. Special precision machined lube block allows ease of lubrication between cable and housing without removing the cable. Just attach the Cable Luber to either end of the cable and insert nozzle from aerosol can. Specially designed seals in block force lube down inside cable housing. A must for the serious mechanic. Cable Life Aerosol lubricates and rustproofs moving parts even at temperatures far below -50 degrees. Buy it at a Motorcycle shop Possom, Thanks for the very helpful info without the useless slam. That is how the list was designed to work, and it is in spite of certain individuals. Those of us who have been around a while know who to listen to. Thanks again, Ed Diebel (Firefly #62)

    My first solo was a Wizard 3 axis. One of those self thought pilots. Had some real bad habits. I was at a flyin and a fellow pilot felt sorry for me,let me show you how to land. Before that I was basicly flying into the ground looked like a basketball bouncing down the runway.

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "kfackler" <kfackler@ameritech.net> Gentlemen: A few of those who submitted their names for the First Airplane poll didn't include the year you first flew. Of course, this is entirely optional. But if you'd like that information on the website (http://www.kfackler.com/kolb/first_plane.html), please send it on. Please send it direct to me, there's no need to clutter the list with messages like that. Note that the website contains a mail link at the bottom that works well for this. Here are those for whom I'm missing that piece of info: Richard Butler Ted Cowan Herb Gayheart David Key Russ Kinne Rick Nielsen Rick Pearce Jim Swan Bill Vincent Duane Zollinger -Ken Fackler Kolb Mark II / A722KWF Rochester MI do not archive

    Hello, I have a Firestar for sale for $3000. It's a STEAL! I live 10 miles from Homer. It's a 377 that just had the engine rebuilt, but not installed. The plane needs cleaning, but it only has 200 hrs on it. BRS chute too. Need money or I would never sell it. I built it and like I said I live near the factory, so it was done right. Jeff Smith

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: russ kinne <kinnepix@earthlink.net> Matt Thank you SO MUCH! -- for taking "Max Stafford" off the list, but I think he'll re-surface as someone else. I also think he's the same guy as "jetpilot", Michael E. Bigelow" and "orcabonita". And now he'll likely try to take me apart somehow. Hey, go ahead, I've survived better people than him trying it. And the FCC does have some most serious teeth, which he may yet feel -- Anyway, thanx for your efforts. Russ Kinne

I also remember Matt promising to ban anyone that started this stuff again on the list, I got banned and did my time out. Now you have started this again without so much as a word from myself. Matt, when you read this, I ask that you apply the rules fairly and ban Russ Kinne as you did me.

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Okay, guys. Let's just drop this right now. My ban last time came when I specifically said that I did not want to see anymore discussion regarding a particular topic thread. Max subsequently posted a very inappropriate follow up message and was banned for the requisite 5-day period. Here's the warning. I suggest that everyone drop this thread now and get back to Kolb-specific discussions. Anymore mud flinging, and someone's going to end up in List jail again. I don't really care who. End this now.

    Hi Mike... Thanx for asking... First flight was about 20 minutes, got a good feel for the plane, second flight was an hour with a friend flying formation in his Firestar... Landed and found a broken muffler support, removed the muffler and it rattles... Now I'm changing the muffler and supports... The Firestar with the 503 is a great little airplane, better than I had hoped...
