Hey,
Nice Gates/ Microsoft propaganda you got there.
Do you pay them or do that for free?
Remember, Bill needs your cash.
Internet Explorer" and "Modern World" used in the same sentence =
oxymoron.
IMHO
The current antiquated Jit Pliot hurts us all by his inherent
limitations and stifles the potential of our forum.

Do you all get crabby every time it's the full moon. I'm reading a lot of complaining.
I read one try to pull everyone else in so that the misery has some
company. It's easy to find on this list but you guy's need to look around and
be glad for what we do have man. Now snap out of it and let's get back to good
positive KOLB talk.

My two cents. This forum is for all Kolb people. I will put my airplane skills
against any ( except John H.) However I'm a computer nerd. I can handle
plain e-mail and such, but not talk about URL's , XYZ's, PDQ's and all the other
gibberish computer know it alls throw out there. When they quit using vacuum
tubes, I got lost. I repeat, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I wouldn't
be surprised if there aren't others out there who feel the same way.

My turn to complain and whimper. Been flying over 50 hours
at the same prop setting I started out at, derived from the prop
calc program. It was good enough to get me in the air and get
familiar (read: overcome fear of unfamiliar contraption)
with my plane. The Suzuki has a peak torque at 3800 rpm and
a peak HP at 5700. I picked a happy medium that gave me
about 4650 at the beginning of the takeoff roll and get 5000
WOT straight and level. The nice thing about it is the torque
gives you a nice steady push throughout the process.
The weakness is that if you pitch it for max HP, the fuel efficiency
falls off. There is a camshaft available that moves the torque
and HP peaks closer together that I am considering.
Anyway, recently I took some pitch out to see what one degree
will do with my rpm. Drenching rain prevents a test.
Reason for change: curiosity overcame laziness and I would
like to haul another butt into the air.

Rob,
I think what been posted is not complaining except maybe your post
itself and the gent that wants everyone else to abandon the old
established email client style system for accessing the list info. I
do believe a few voiced there feelings with that being necessary to
show there are more than him that use the service and are happy with
it as it is and there is no need for a change. Perhaps you need to
screen messages, learn how to use the delete key and thicken your
skin a little.
Let get on with it.

Count me on your team.. Not really sure about the airplane skills
though...
One real gripe though. Listers who WILL quote the entire post to which
they are responding. All they have to do is block the portion of the
post referred to, copy and paste. Just as I have done above.
Cheers

Interesting,
My original message, included a link directly to Ted's FS2 canopy. But when it
hit my mail box, it was a blank message. Got scrubbed somewhere... did you all
see the same blank message?

Nothing personal, and nothing personal against you, but I've/we've been flying
these things since 1983 and "Amsoil" sucks, it cost us Cuyuas' in the 80's
and I think it will cost you Rotax's in the 90's-2001.

The 503 (Dual Carb)is a rock, it is a stone, it is the pinnacle of
the two stroke.
The single carb has to be massaged - just a little.
I've flown a 447 with points - on a KXP for at least 400 hours before
this one - they are/were finicky little engines,
they want everything to be just right. But...when everything is
right, they are hard to beat - you know what I mean.
I've got 698 hours now without a decarb - really. 1999 Engine 503
E-gear box (Going for the record "800 hours")
No carbon yet. Compression still 120 per cylinder - (like new) "outa
the box" Still checking with the dental mirrors and intake and
exhaust manifolds off (flashlight down the plug holes) every 50 or
so hours. Gotta repaint my muffler once in a while anyway - wish I'd
got it chromed when it was new..
Just a test guys - so don't flame me.
Don't try this at home.
I'm at the Ferguson Farm & I'm JUST the test pilot for "this one" anyway.
Never had the jugs off - never had the engine even hick up.
And I know that's not what the book says.(Where no man has gone
before - 800 hr on a 503 CDI no decarb).
We who are about to die - salute you.
BUT - GUYS! I GOT A BRAND NEW 65 HP "-----" AIR COOLED ENGINE.
SITTING IN THE BOX - JUST WAITING FOR ME TO TEST FLY or
BREAK IT. WEIGHT = 92 LBS. - 13 EXTRA HP!
JUST GOTTA BREAK THIS ONE FIRST!
I KNOW I CAN DO IT -
ANY SUGGESTIONS FROM THE PEANUT GALLEY?
