Subject: | Rotax Two Stroke Maintenance |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Hauck" <jhauck@elmore.rr.com>
Morning Gang:
Got home last night from Chesapeake, VA. Delivered my 912ULS and Warp
Drive to a happy MKIIIx owner. He had the 582 removed from the Xtra,
and was ready to do some 4 stroke Kolb flying.
Found an email from Kodiak when I got home. Should be of interest to
all the two stroke Rotax guys on the List. Has to do with checks and
maintenance schedules, something you all were discussing just prior to
my departure for VA.
http://www.rotax-owner.com/si_tb_info/serviceb/SB505010535009.pdf
Got a few days to get ready to go to the Kolb Homecoming 2006. Plan
to be there Wednesday afternoon or night. Looks like we are going to
have cool weather, temps in the 70's and lows in the 40's. No rain in
the forecast.
See ya'll there,
john h

Craig, If I get your goal, it's to keep your ties to the aircraft to a
minimum in the event you want to sell it.
I'll give you the short version of two hours spent with a lawyer discussing
liability.
You are wasting your effort.
"If a client wants to file a lawsuit alleging negligence, I'm going to go
through the aircraft log books and name every one whose name is there."
"I may have no interest in suing a particular mechanic, but I'll name
everyone at first and see what shakes out."
"Obviously, my goal is to get to the deep pockets."
Those were just some of the insights.
Simple protection, there are a few things you can do to mitigate your
liability.
1. Do good work. Maintain your aircraft as though your life depended upon
it.
2. Let someone else do the annuals. That person signs his name and certifies
the aircraft is in conditon for safe operation.
3. Sell the aircraft to a dealer. He has deeper pockets than you, generally.
Is there absolute protection, no. There are many things you can do, but they
may have other drawbacks. Go spend a couple of hundred bucks with a good
lawyer and get it from the horse's mouth.
Think about this, elaborate schemes to try and distance a seller from the
aircraft, make the seller look like he has something to hide.
Last, the FAA will not send certificates to a P.O. box.

Rick:
Thanks for the info I think it is good to get as many people involved in
the documentation as possible. I never thought of having an A&P sing off
the annual. For those of you building your plane it is a good idea to
have at least 3 inspections by an EAA inspector through the building
process or you will not be eligible for EAA insurance. I'd like to thank
Jim and Merrill for mine. The Kolb manual I have in the how to register
your plane states that you finish your plane then have a DAR inspect it.
I know this is possible But the information I got from my inspectors has
been invaluable. .And no my goal was to share information given to me by
a DAR inspecting my plane, not to separate me from my plane he just said
he has done this on many planes and it was to limit the liability. As I
said it's too late for me my full name is in the builder box on the
aforementioned forms.

Thank you John. God willing, I will be at the homecoming via pick-um-up! Still
have a few more repairs to do to the Firestar. Fired it up first time today with
new IVO prop. Had to learn from prop neutral (as shipped), righty is loosie
and lefty is tighty. Cranked prop pitch adjust screw inward from neutral and
engine wanted to wind up. Cranked it out (almost all the way) and prop settled
at full throtle at 6,100 on the groung. Has a different sound than the old wooden
one. And I am so pleased the tranny and the engine never sounded tighter
and the EGT and CHT stayed well within the operating range. If Planecrazzys is
there I'm gonna make him get down and gimm-e 50. Unless he has taht attack dog
with him! Ha, HA!
Ohio Ralph, flyin high and haven't enen left the ground yet!

Hey Ralph,
Did you get the 3" spacer to go with that IVO ? ($80.)
I think the prop is supposed to be 5" away from the trailing edge...
Those IVO props "flex" more than others....
Glad to hear your Bird's getting back in airworthiness condition...
You got yer 50....The Dog did'em ( hey , 50's - 50 )

Subject: | firestar ll elevator question...(jim swan) |
Hello Gang,
Intended to make the Kolb flyin but had a couple of teeth pulled and they
want me back Frid the 22nd, I tried to get them to change the date but no l
uck,
they are trying to get my dental work done before I leave for Florida the
last of Oct. Darn it.. Have a question that I was going to ask at the
flyin, so here it is. On our Firestar ll when I pull the stick back it move
s the
left stabilizer some on the bolts that fastens it to the boom, the right
stabilizer moves some , but not as much, when the stick is moved back just
the
opposite happens. Is this normal? It flys ok and I do not consider it a
danger. I suspicion that it may have to move because of the folding design.
By the way I am doing a lot of flying in the firestar and really enjoying i
t
.and I must admit I am improving, but do not intend to bragg. Thanks to all
in advance for your input. Have some more questions that I will post when y
ou
guys get back from the fly in. thanks again for your input.

Jim S:
Sorry you are not going to be able to make the Kolb Homecoming.
Your elevator situation is normal, when the piano hinge pins are not
centered exactly on the elevator control mechanism on each side of the
tail boom. Will not hurt anything, but make sure the forward tang is
not being pushed or pulled into the bracket and placing a bending
moment on it.
I have one side that does not move, and the other side moves about an
1/8". Hasn't hurt the running none.............

The battery seems to last about an hour and the memory is 4 Gigabits.

Hi John
I don't know anything about the FireStar, maybe Thom or Bob know more.
I'm working in Buffalo, NY for two weeks so I contacted Thom Riddle about
checking out some Kolbs in the area. He invited me to fly over to Geneseo
airport and meet with Bob Bean. The Geneseo airport is home of the 1941
Historical Aircraft Group Museum.

Done had my "butt bite" more than once. At least I can hold my breath
and don't have to shoot any bears like brother "Hauck" might have to do
one day if he keeps flying up north. I'll take the water over that anytime.
BTW why doesn't he just change his name to "Hawk" ?

Yes - But notice..... "Your head is a great shock absorber until you
land on the runway"
This was actually a pretty good landing and the runway is not that
bad, but once I'm
in contact with the ground, I can't smooth out the bumps anymore with my head.
Gee ..... we ought to give video lessons to the new guys - huh?
