    Subject: Re: N-number
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: Thom Riddle <jtriddle@adelphia.net> David, I suspect the confusion is as follows. The Repairman's Certificate that the builder of an aircraft registered as an Experimental Amateur-Built aircraft earns, is for ONLY that airplane, and no class is required for this. As others have stated the Repairman's Certificate that an E-LSA owner can get after taking and passing the 16 hour class is good for any and all E-LSAs that he owns as long as they are in the same type of aircraft that the class taken was addressing. do not archive Thom in Buffalo

    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "boyd" <by0ung@brigham.net> You can get a packet from EAA for $17.95 that has all the forms you need or you can call Rainbow Aviation Services at 530-824-0644 and get all the forms in their packet for $5.00. The RAS packet is LSA friendly and will probably make it easier. >>>>>>>>>> Call your local fsdo office,,,, they sent me out a package for free. boyd

    Subject: E-LSA vs. Exp-A/B for student pilots
    From: "Thom Riddle" <jtriddle@adelphia.net>
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Thom Riddle" <jtriddle@adelphia.net> In the recent past there have been threads about the pros and cons of registering a Kolb you build as an ELSA vs. Experimental Amateur Built. I do not recall anyone mentioning insurance as a differentiating issue in the registration decision. If someone has addressed this before, I apologize for bringing it up again. I just read an article by Bob Mackey, VP of Falcon Insurance about insuring a STUDENT pilot in E-A/B vs. ELSA aircraft. It is worth a read at the following link. http://tinyurl.com/oamwf Bottom line is that ELSA has the edge in both availability of insurance for student pilots and premiums if available. do not archive -------- Thom in Buffalo Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=61888#61888

    Subject: Interesting video, and website...
    Sorry Gang, the first message did not take. I was helping figure out a broken URL from another site, when it worked, it was very cool. And my search led to another site that was even more impressive for us aviation types... read the messages below for the long/short story. To keep a Kolb connection, i had to do some work on my Kuntzleman Strobe recently (i broke a bulb), and in the troubleshooting process the folks at KE inc were very very helpful! Even sent an extra unit out to help determine my problem. Very personal, and now my driver unit is on its way back home, hope to install this weekend. I give them 2 thumbs up for customer service! And the repair price was practially nothing, when they could have easily told me i needed a new driver box ($150), but no, just fixed mine. Even got a call from the owner just to let me know it was OK and on its way. Great company! Mike S Manchester TN Firestar 2 503 do not archive Barry and all, The original link did work. I saw the video, and it was very impressive. And did read at another website and learned it was not an F-16B but actually a CT-155 Hawk. But that was a student flying with an instructor (what a training ride!). Where i learned this is at another cool aviation website... http://www.patricks aviation. com/ As for the original link, the reason it did not work, there are 3 spaces in the URL that caused it to fail. Copy and paste to your web browser, backspace out the 3 blank spaces, and it works fine. They are located between "alwayson" and the "-", "network." and the "com", "comments." and the "php" remove the 3 blank spaces in the url once pasted to the browser, and you will get there. Or go to the other link, the same video is there also. Great job finding that one Barry, it was impressive!! !

Barry http://www.alwayson -network. com/comments. php?id=P14238_ 0_6_0_C READ THIS -- CAREFULLY -- FIRST; THEN WATCH THE VIDEO Then watch it again. This is split second decision making! F-16 engine ingests bird after takeoff @ Tyndall AFB. It is certainly interesting to see a crash from the cockpit of an airplane. There is an instructor pilot in the rear and a student in the front seat of an F-16. A "Bird Strike," as seen through the Heads Up Display (HUD). One can see the bird "flash-by" just prior to impacting the engine. One can hear the aircraft voice warning system telling them they have a problem and referring to the "D-6 NL" which means there is no engine RPM. They made 2 attempts to relight the jet engine, but evidently there was too much damage from the bird strike and they had to get out. These guys were very cool; note the heavy breathing ... they certainly flew longer than one would expect before ejecting. Airspeed can be observed on the HUD's upper left corner. It goes down to the low 120's as they struggle to get the engine going again, but as the plane noses over and dives to earth it increases to at least 175 just before impact. It just goes to show how quickly your day can go to pieces - 45 seconds from strike to ejection. All and all, not bad. The pilots ran the emergency checklist, made two relight attempts, and picked out a plowed field for impact before ejecting. You can follow the audio attached to it and hear the conversation between the pilot and instructor pilot, and then the tower, including the pilot saying they were punching out. The tower didn't seem to completely understand the situation, and missed the significance of the last transmission. The towers last radio call -- he's talking to an empty aircraft. The video continues until impact, even after both pilots eject. A classic "buying the farm" as you can see the plow rows get bigger. A real nice job from the aircrew by keeping their cool and turning the aircraft away from populated areas. --------------------------------- Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo! Mail.

    Subject: N-number(REGESTRATION)
    From: "Craig Nelson" <Craig.Nelson@heraeus.com>
    --> Kolb-List message posted by: "Craig Nelson" <Craig.Nelson@heraeus.com> Hay all: I have read a lot lately about decisions to regester or not to regester, ELSA or Experinental. My two bits: when you fill out form 8050-88 or 8050-88A and form 8050-1 you might consider your name you put in the aircraft manufacturer box. Rather than your full name you might consider an initial and last name. Maybe the middle initial and last name? Drop the middle initial and use first initial and last name? The address is a postal box. You are the manufacturer, and upon sale the prop is removed with photo documentation. Pictures of the manufacturers recommended prop bolts removed and tagged. The manufacturer keeps the bolts. Picture documentation of the plane without the prop mounted. If anyone ever fly's the plane without the recommended bolts that the manufacturer still has someone mush have replaced them without the recommendation of the manufacturer. In our litigation society if some one steels your plane or you sell it and something bad happens the attorneys come right to the manufacturer. I was with a DAR today and he made this comment, although it's too late for me I thought I would Pass it along Uncle craig The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
