Hi Folks:
I love this video clip. It is the mkIII making a pass at Monument
Valley, turning 5,400 rpm WOT and wearing that 912ULS with a smile on
my face:

<< How come you're selling that old Power Fin Prop? john h >>
John - Diameter was too small (65").
Am currently running a 72" diam prop on my 912, and getting better
performance. I suspect it's more efficient to spin a larger prop
slower, with less pitch, than a smaller prop spinning faster with more
pitch.

Arty,
I just flew my Cessna 172 in December from near Sacramento to St. George,
Utah, which is fairly close to Monument Valley. I realize you are planning
a little different route than I flew, but I believe I have a few pointers
that you will want to know. ( e.g. MOA's, Restricted airspace, flight
following, etc) Mike in Utah 435-817-1816

If I was flying a two stroke, I would stay on 95 all the way to
Blythe. You can stay clear of Las Vegas control zone.
Generally, that is the way I would fly my mkIII if I was going the
same destination.
I have flown I-10. Should be a good flight to El Paso and San
Antonio.
See ya'll in May.

Kolbers,
Does anyone have 1 extra 90 degree fitting with the adapter for the oil cooler
for a 912rotax? I need just 1 of each and hate to buy the kit at 70 bucks from
rotax. I will be happy to buy them and pay the shipping.
Thanks

Call Travis at Kolb. See if he has a 2d tube that won't qualify for a
kit. They usually have some with a few tiny dings in them that do not
hurt their strength and serviceability. I have one on my mkIII that
has been on there about 14 years and over 2,000 hours.
Usually, you can turn the ding to the bottom and no one will ever know
the difference between it and a perfect one.

Subject: | endorsement to fly into Class B & C airspace |
As you can tell, I'm trying to follow roads as much as
possible, both for safety and since Karen will be
following us in their truck. (Of course, depending on
wind we may be following her!) I'm not sure if I'll
have my endorsement to fly into Class B & C airspace
by then - so am planning to fly around that.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Tell us about the endorsement, who do you get it from, how do you go about
getting it, who needs it, and what is needed in the plane?

Subject: | Hard card received |
Good news came in the mail today. I received my 'hard card,' the
registration for my Kolb. I have a few hours worth of work to do, mainly
placarding, to get ready for the airworthiness inspection. Fortunately, I've
just found a new hangar at my field that is much smaller than the 'barn
size' one I'm in now. With only me and one other airplane, it should
be -much- easier to heat it to a temperature where I can actually work out
there. With an inspector lined up for April, everything should be legal as
Church on Sunday by the opening of the flying season.

Subject: | Re: fitting needed |
Never mind!
Travis tha man hooked me up! This brings up an interesting subject tho.... John
H John W. and Mark G. all have the same set up. They all needed 3 90's to make
the oil cooler work on the back of the fuselage. Rotax sends the engenis out
with the straight fittings for the oil pump and cooler. The 90's are an option
you have to buy at 70 bucks per 2. My question is who has bought 2 pairs and
what did you do with the other 90? May could get together on this and pair up
the extra fittings and make some gas money if you guys can find them...or at
least help out a fellow builder. On another note travis sent me a few photos of
the routing of a plane bryan built that used the straight fittings. And the
Rotax hose.
I think he said it was MikeB not sure
I would like to see more photos of your oil hose routing and type hose used. Im
going with areoquip FC-332

Subject: | Re: endorsement to fly into Class B & C airspac |
To fly into Class C or Class B airspace you need an instructor's endorsement
in your logbook. To get that you will have to learn to read a sectional so
you understand altitude restrictions within the airspace. The classic
definition of Class B airspace is the upside down wedding cake. The airspace
only goes to the ground in the area around the airport itself. The further
you get from the center the higher the floor level of controlled airspace.
Approach corridors in and out will have their floor extended downward
further from the core than traffic and holding areas. Most flying in the Vfr
areas under the veil require only that you have a transponder and have it
set to 1200. Without a transponder you have to call ahead and get permission
to operate in those Vfr areas. I'm not sure you would be allowed up into
controlled airspace without the transponder as each aircraft is assigned a
unique code.
I learned to fly GA in the Class D airspace of Renton (RNT) which is
completely inside the Seatac Class B perimeter and abutts the Class C
airspace around Boeing Field (BFI). The normal pattern at RNT was to the
east of the runway. When requesting access to the VFR corrider directly over
Seatac you asked RNT tower for a Burien turnout. RNT would get you the
transponder code and direct you to contact SEA immediately after takeoff. If
the wind was from the north you were instructed to use a close in west
pattern and you would be very close to the downwind for BFI. The payoff was
when Seatac ATC would direct you to climb to 1500 feet and cross the runways
at 90 degrees. I never got tired of looking down the approach and seeing
jumbos coming right at me.

Re: pilot endorsements and aircraft equipment
requirements for flying into Class B, C, and D
airspace:
Part 61.325 states:
"If you hold a sport pilot certificate and seek
privileges to operate a light-sport aircraft in Class
B, C, or D airspace, at an airport located in Class B,
C, or D airspace, or to, from, or at an airport having
an operational control tower, you must receive and log
ground and flight training. The authorized instructor
who provides this training must provide a logbook
endorsement that certifies you are proficient in the
following aeronautical knowledge areas and areas of
operation:
a) The use of radios, communications, navigation
system/facilities, and radar services.
b) Operations at airports with an operating control
tower to include three takeoffs and landings to a full
stop, with each landing involving a flight in the
traffic pattern, at an airport with an operating
control tower.
c) Applicable flight rules of part 91 of this chapter
for operations in Class B, C, or D airspace and
traffic control clearances."
AIM 3-2-3, b5(b) & (c) states that in order to enter
Class B airspace, the aircraft "unless otherwise
authorized by ATC...must be equiped with an operable
two-way radio capable of communicating with ATC on
appropriate frequencies for that area, and an operable
radar beacon transponder with automatic altitude
reporting equipment."
AIM 3-2-4 c2 (a) & (b) requires the same for Class C
airspace.
AIM 3-2-5 b2 requires only an operable two-way radio,
again unless otherwise authorized by ATC.

Subject: | Re: Seeking feedback on Oregon-Texas-MV route |
Thanks John. Since Hwy. 95 goes slightly west from
Winnemucca, in the past I've flown east past Battle
Mountain and turn south at Palisade. You follow a
nice long, wide valley with a non-busy landable road
as well as plenty of dirt and gravel roads. I just
haven't been as far south as Blythe - so will talk
with Larry about flying south via Austin and Topenah
and picking up Hwy. 95 there to Blythe. I think I was
a little nervous about staying out of Las Vegas'
control zone if we took Hwy. 95 - so it's good to hear
from you that it's doable.
See you in May at MV!!!
