    Subject: Moument Valley Warning!!!!
    From: "Gherkins Tim-rp3420" <rp3420@freescale.com>
    Kolbers, Talked with Gouldings last night and found out that the runway at MV is closed until Wednesday the 16th. This is due to the Red Bull activities over this weekend. Just thought I would let you know, for any other details call them.

    Denny, You have to be able to find 2 days. You should just sell that plane to me. Or better yet, let me fly it for a couple of years until you can find the time.

    Subject: Re. Battery for Kolb
    Boyd, Do these batteries take a charge from a Rotax system ok? As compared to the AC/DC converter? do not archive >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I have been using one of this type of battery since 2000... I use the rotax rectifier / regulator, to control charging current and voltage... The battery is a sealed lead acid, recombinant gas technology type battery. And can be used in any position. If you go to Arizona battery http://www.arizonabattery.com/ and click on show all battery's then click on 12 volt batteries,,, http://www.arizonabattery.com/?page=shop/browse&category=agmbatterylist_12vo ltbatteries& it is about half way down the page... I think the one showed is a 12 volt 18 amp hour battery, but the physical dimensions and overall appearance is the same. This battery has 9/16 + - tabs bout 1/16 thick with a 3/16 hole for a bolt. The battery that came out of the jump start and is in my plane has been there now for over 3 years and shows no sign of problems, prior to removing it from the jump start I had the jump start in my plumbing van and had helped a customer start his v8 engine 4 or 5 times before he got it out of the driveway on the way to the repair shop.

    Holy stale gigabytes, I sent this months ago!! Must have gotten lost in cyberspace! Failing to be able to get this posted is why I did the journal, now it shows up. The article by B. J. Phillips is more readable here than at the rcn journal site which is a plus; she wrote a very tasteful article. The National Enquirer called me shortly after it happened but I declined their offer. Who knows how they would have treated it or who I'd be "sharing" the page with!! I did get a free pair of Rockport shoes from the deal. They were running a contest 50 words or less what you experienced while wearing Rockports. Well, I was wearing Rockports (and a cut up the shoe continuing onto my ankle was the only external injury except for two almost bruises on my forehead and temple from the action inside my BMW helmet) so my entry earned me a free pair. I also want to stress again the danger from cut threads in the end of the adjustment rod on non-aircraft cables. My home in Lansdale was a few miles from the Teleflex plant where the marine push-pull cables were manufactured (they had another over near where Homer lives) and an engineer came to check out the wreckage. He explained to me that the cables fractured from the thread roots, which are cut - machined - rather than rolled with a rounded root (if it's still called a root) and that the one cable had been fractured halfway through previously, as evidenced by the polishing of the grain of the metal halfway through the cross section. I doubt if would be possible to see a crack in a threaded rod, so I personally wouldn't trust them in any application on an aircraft again.

    Boyd, I like the idea of using pre packaged items that can be broken down for their sub components. Great idea thanks Steve B ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

    Hi Boyd, Despite the naysayers, many economy batteries are just as good as their more expensive counterparts with similar design (size, plate count, etc). As for Recombinant Gas (RCG), they seem to be the wave of the future. Store current longer, more forgiving of misuse and temperature variations, etc. They are generally much more expensive, though Ed in JXN MkII/503 ----- Original Message ----- From: "boyd" <by0ung@brigham.net> Sent: Monday, May 07, 2007 11:04 AM Subject: Kolb-List: battery for kolbs.... > > To all > > Fyi.. > > A while back I needed a new battery for my MkIIIc..

    Kolbers, For those of you who are following my work on N408CP/Kolbra012 I delete photos on the MSN site daily to make room for more..thus this changes the links in previous post...SO if your keeping track and use the MSN site I use bookmark this link... http://groups.msn.com/AerialWorld/kolbra012.msnw?Page=1 Then use the "page" button to go to the last page. Sorry for the confusion but this is the fastest way to upload photos for me. Regards -------- Paul Petty Kolbra #12 Ms Dixie Final assembly!

    Hell yes, we are following your work. I was looking at your nice new smoked canopy when it dawned on me that you don't seem to have any air vents or windows to open if you need a little fresh air. I think you are going to bake. What do you think? Is there an air vent I didn't see like maybe a naca vent under the nose cone? -------- Scott Olendorf Original Firestar, Rotax 447, Powerfin prop Schenectady, NY http://KolbFirestar.googlepages.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=111725#111725
