Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message acknowledging everyone
that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its sort
of my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their
appreciation for the Lists.
Won't you take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors
(LOC)? As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems
at least - if not a whole lot more - valuable as a
building/flying/recreating/entertainment tool as your typical magazine subscription!
Please take minute and assure that your name is on this year's LOC! Show others
that you appreciate the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is
fast and easy using your Credit card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or by popping a personal check in the mail to:
Matt Dralle / Matronics
PO Box 347
Livermore CA 94551-0347
I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus
far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps
these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment
about how the Lists have helped you!
Best regards,
Matt Dralle

Guys,
I have been so stunned and saddened about losing Dave, I have just had a
hard time posting about it.
Every time Dave brought somebody to the valley to show them uncle
Craig's and my airplanes, he would pay the highest compliments.
Recently spent some time with him at Copperstate Fly-in and he kept
ranting and raving the judges to come over and judge our planes.
Always the center of goings on at monument valley where he and Eve gave
freely of their pop, food and a chair. We will sorely miss him.
Our humble condolences to Eve and her family and of course his right
hand man, George.
Tim Gherkins & Uncle Craig

In memory of Dave, here are some pictures from when he hauled his plane to San
Manuel airport (40 miles N of Tucson) in early 05. We had a great time flying
around the area and spending time together camping in his BAMH.
I really still can't believe it! Also I'm sure there is another family tragedy
we are not talking about, the family of his passenger.... condolences to them
as well!

> That hole in the back was acting like a giant megaphone
Just wondering, Does the Tube back to the tail feathers also act like a drum with
each passing of the nearby prop tip thus passing the noise back up the tube
to the cockpit cage ?
Has anyone done any work on this theory by having some sound deadening material
inside the tube at that point at least ?
Resonation can travel well within the confines of a tube especially if harmonics
are involved.
Just curious. David

I cut out a thick plug of foam rubber and stuffed it into the tube just
behind my right elbow to keep cold air from flowing out of it. Don't know if
it is quieter, but my elbow has quit turning blue...

Az. Dave had been flying the Kolb for a long time and had flown many
passengers. I find it hard to believe he just stalled and spun in. I want wanabies
or newbies to know that Kolbs don't just fall out of the sky and the plane
had just been inspected. My first thought was he either suffered a hart attack
or a stroke. But that will all come out in the NTSB report.
At least I got to spend a short time with Dave at the Copperstate fly-in.

Larry, Of couce it is not official because the NTSB are going to investigate
it because he had just registered the Kolb as a sport certified plane.They
had been doing touch and go's all morning. I don't know how big (heavy) the
passenger was but it is my and most others that he made a low level turn and
just stalled and spun in. He only
had a 282 Rotax on it. It went in straight down. No chance for his chute.
Since he was in the pattern, I doubt that they were more than4-500 feet high.
our field is 4500 feet.

Great flying, Will :D . I wish that it was that easy to fly low in Georgia! I
have been lying low recently as I have been deciding on a next project. I hope
to have a Waiex kit delivered in Feb [Shocked] .
Don't worry, the Firestar is going nowhere and will someday have a big brother
in the hangar with her...

I have been trying to make my MKIII quieter since I lowered my engine by
adding sound deadening material everywhere I could think of with no luck. I
never considered the fuselage tube but that could be it. definitely worth
checking. My tube is plugged near the tail feathers but not on the fuselage
end so it might be even more noisy.
Good idea.

You make a good point of air coming forward in the Mk III tube. I have
been wondering about cutting a louver in the under side of the nose cone
to relieve the vacuum which would also stop the forward movement of air
in the tube. According to Mr. Newton, the reaction would be less from
the forward moving air. However, the drag of a louver would be more.
Hard to figure.

Regarding props - I've had very good results with Powerfin props. They are well
made, rugged, and have a low moment of inertia. I would use a Warp Drive for
sure if I was on floats or operating off a gravel runway because of the metal
leading edge.
Prop preferance is kind of like blondes, brunettes, or red heads.
I'll certainly test a warp drive if I can get ahold of one for that purpose.

Someone was asking about increasing fuel capacity in their original

5052 Aluminum .050 wall tank, mounted in the upper rear behind the
bulkhead, opening up a cargo compartment below. Similar configuration
as my MKIII.

Dave, as dicussed in previous posts, save yourself some trouble & call Warp
Drive & ask for the inertia on whatever prop you would use. You will probably
fund it is way too high for your gearbox.
I like Warp props; used one for 500 hrs. I'm now using a Kiev prop; like it
better.

This is incredible! If you want to print it out and
send it to Eve, matted and framed, I'll be glad to
help out with the cost. (Frames seem to get more
expensive every year, especially with special mats.)
