    I have a full enclosure for a Mark III Classic that I will never use. It is a combination of vinyl and velcro. I would guess that it will cost less than $10 to mail it. If anyone wants it, let me know. Vic in Sacramento a/c 916, 722-9692

    West Marine sells gascolators with a clear blue bowl, replaceable element and a drain at the bottom. I bought one for my boat when I started making fishing trips into Mexico. They work great, but may be a little clunky for a small plane. Seems like it was around $50 or $60. Lar.

    "The clearance for the edge of the tab to the edge of the hole is less that 3/16th inch. Is this attach point critical for wing strength? " I can only tell you what my Extra plans say. One page says 5/16" from the Center-- The next page says 5/16" from the edge. Call Kolb! Vic 912 Extra Maine

    Scott, When did you buy kit 1? Your project and workman ship looks great! I also added the gussets to the rudder and elevator like johns plane. There are some real good mods for the wings as well. -------- Paul Petty Kolbra #12 Ms Dixie covering and painting Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=88024#88024

    Scott, One other thing i noticed. Flaps. Does the Mark 3 X come with flaps now or did you add them. If added what are your plans for deploying them i.e. mech or eletric. -------- Paul Petty Kolbra #12 Ms Dixie covering and painting Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=88028#88028
