Ive got a Rotax side mount exhaust system that is in very good shape. This includes the muffler, elbow and exhaust manifold (the exh man fits a 503). Ive also got 13 quarts of the California Power Systems AV-2 2-cycle oil. This is the 50% mineral base and 50% synthetic blend. Please contact me if you have an interest in these items. Im located in NW Ohio. Thanks.

ACS sells 2.7 oz dacron for 3.65/yd in my (old) catalog. Certainly just as good as the name band stuff. Theoretically illegal on a standard certificated airplane but perfectly ok on an experimental. The joke is that "grade A" cotton is legal for your old classic taildragger but dacron, which is far superior, requires an STC. -regularly ignored these days as a matter of common sense.

I went out and did some landings yesterday in this condition and they were a fun ride! Of course I've got lots of Mechanical turbulance that is effect at my field (houses, buildings, hangars, trees) really close to the RW (sometimes right up to the runway). (see pictures below) I'f I'm at a real airport with more of an open space with little interference, maybe I'll bump it up to 10 Kts I've got no problem in a GA plane in handling all the way up to (and sometimes above) the Max demo Xwind for the planes, but our birds are so light, they don't have the momentum going for them to keep them straight. -------- -Erik Grabowski Kolb Firestar N197BG CFI/CFII Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=67555#67555 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/kolb_012_589.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/kolb_011_124.jpg ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 03:14:23 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Looking for a "Flying Mark III" - (Forwarded messa From: "planecrazzzy" --> Kolb-List message posted by: "planecrazzzy" My name is Richie Mattson. I am an ultralight enthusiast from Duluth Minnesota and wonder if you know of anyone with a flying Mark III in Minnesota or Wisconsin that would be willing to take me up. I am considering purchasing a Kolb but need to experience one before committing to the purchase. Please email me at littlegrandhome@yahoo.com if you know anyone who would do this for me. I have been flying an Aerolite 103 for a 1 1/2 years but sold it to purchase a 2-place. I am going through withdrawal and need to find my new ride soon. Thanks. Richie Mattson Gotta Fly...
