The dirt is normally showing. This year's monsoon rains have changed all that. Yesterday evening after landing and taxiing to hangar, found this in one landing gear. Guess the red one is just a hippy bird at heart. jsf ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:07:49 AM PST US From: Terry Subject: Kolb-List: Thimbles --> Kolb-List message posted by: Terry Now at 570 hr.'s on my FireFly I need to replace my cable thimbles for my horizontal stabilizers. Thanks to John H. for bringing it to my attention when we met at Homer's farm last month. I noticed that there are stainless steel thimbles available as well as the standard a/n steel models. I'm thinking of using the stainless ones this time. Would appreciate any comments pro or con regarding using the stainless steel ones?

I built a Twinstar MK-3 in 1996, sold it a year later, became a CFII & built a lot of time, but now am missing the old Kolb. I`m hoping to find a MK-3, Firestar, or Slingshot .(going to look at a Firestar next week) I`m in TN, so if anyone knows of a deal within a reasonable drive, I`d like to hear about it.

Steve ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 10:56:14 AM PST US Subject: RE: Kolb-List: New subscriber From: "Bill Rayfield" Sorry, no engine, and would need some covering supplies. This was the first Kolbra, built as a factory demo. When TNK changed the nose design, they removed the wings and tail. Basically, it's a kit that already has the cockpit done, but nothing else. Contact me off list for more, or pics.

I gave the first rating on the Coming Home vid, sorry they only allowed a 5! Sure hope you live in one of those couple of mini-mansions at the end of the runway, if not, they might get weary of the low flying possums out there! But how did you mount your camera? Hand holding one, could not really be safe? Could it? Mike S Manchester TN do not archive possums wrote: Found a place to upload digital videos for free.
