7/8" ID vinyl hose. >>

I use the same arrangement, red poly tank with loop handle,
vinyl hose fits perfectly over the stub on the tank cap. As I
remember, the tank
had some kind of a self-venting device on it which I removed
to clamp the hose on. I drilled a very small hole in the handle
for the vent. My tanks are in the standard MkIII location so I don't
have to lift far for gravity to do the job.

Hello all.
I remember to have read about the usage of the black automotive gas
lines with non-premix gas ...
My question is: Can these automotive line be safely used with pre-mixed
(using 50:1 Penzoil for 2 stroke air cooled) .
I have to replace all the lines in my Twinstar MK II and would like to use
this type of line if it is safe ...
Thanks !

I use fuel-injection line that is compatible with all fuels with any
mixes: SAE 30R9 (one popular mfg is Gates). Also, check out Areoquip
FC332...

Hi Kolbers,
As of yesterday Ms. Dixie's wings are covered and back home. Had one scarey moment
on the interstate when a semi passed pops at a high rate of speed and cut
over in front of him [Shocked] the wings and the rig they were riding on tried
to take flight! Other tan that they had a nice ride home. Couple of things
for the archives and future builders or folks covering that I ran into.... first
was the covering kit I bought from ATS aka Jim Miller. It's a tad over kill.
I would recomend Jim as a point of purchase but not the covering "Kit" as per
say. The "kit" is put together by TNK and lacks certain items and has to much
of others. For an example one will need, or at least it's easier to have some
4" "bias" tape for the wing tip bows. I cant Imagine trying to get a smooth
edege with the supplied 4" tape that came with the "Kit". Next is the fabric rivets.
I was not happy with the ones that came from Jim. Although they are "certified"
and used on alot of airplanes..the guy who coached me in my covering
didnt like them and had some that were much nicer. the edeges of these rivets
were rounded and pulled into the reinforcing tape much cleaner. If anyone is at
this stage and wants part numbers for the rivets let me know.

Take care

FANTASTIC!
Thank you, whoever took them. I do however have a concern or three:
The "mounting " method of that cow appeared somewhat unique. Would someone like
to explain that method. I realize you just left Hooters and all the booze, but
still, that is somewhat an unorthodox method. Right front leg seems very unconventional.
Oh, well. I dare not dwell.
The line about the most poluted area in the nation, I found rather unusual from
a Californian. Is that really true?
Can you recall the altitude you were flying when you took the picture of the Presidential
heads. I know that in reality, they are only 30 feet across total,
and when I traveled there by motorcycle, was really let down. I somehow expected
something larger. So by all outward appearances, you were about 100 feet off
the ground?
Lastly, Never mock "Wall Drugs" or their distant calling with sineage every 30
feet from Chicago. As an x-biker, I looked forward to finding that place just
to get the free glass of water. I didn't recall the fly-over of Sturgis, S.D.
Could that be perhaps because after Bike week, they take the cardboard walls back
down, whilst sweeping up the drunks?
Thank you so much for thoses pictures and the captions. What a wonderful bunch
of aircraft in one location.

Greetings Kolb fan,
It has been raining way too much here in the desert southwest so I thought I
would do a little recon over the Rio Grande this past Sunday.
Below is a link to a short video I took during the flight.
Be advised the file is 4.92 MB so dialups need not view it.
