I agree with Scott. It was just funny. Besides, you know it's illegal to
descriminate against someone because of sexual preference. If Mr. B. Max
wants to fuck Mr. Funnel we should only worry, is he using a condom.
Wouldn't want a fuel rash. Is he using proper lubrication, not 2 cycle
oil. But most importantly lets hope to hell he's talking about the small
end of the funnel. Cause if he ain't I would caution any of you Girly
Men not to bend over at any flyin (Kolb related) attended by you and Mr.
Max!
Russ says "BlumaxI really don't think any of the Kolb-ers need, or want,
you superb advice on just about everything. Esp. with your choice of
adjectives.
How 'bout going away?"

I've fueled from plastic cans many many times (hi-wing Cessna), in
Canada & when on floats. Never had a problem, thankfully. Only thing
I do, if I can, is hold spout closed with a fingertip until it's in
the tank neck and in contact. Mainly to avoid spilling. 'Cans' are
apparently non-conducting plastic, marked "UL Classified" Some are
'approved by the LAFD'.

Gang,
I have allways been told the FAA takes forever to do anything. They made the change
to the MFG in less than 2 days. Were good to go.

Dave,
There no official time! Come sometime in the morning, not real early,
but make sure your there before lunch. Clara and family is going to
prepare a picnic lunch as usual and that is when introductions are made
and pictures taken. Leave when you have to. Most will depart sometime
in the afternoon. See you there!

Carl,
It is also known that static releases occur when two surfaces containing
a static charge gets close enough for the charge to bridge the gap. It would
also follow that if there was no gap, there should be no release or spark
jump. It is my belief that by its construction and function that the Mr
Funnel causes a bit more of the static buildup than just pouring it into a
plastic gas container, so therefore if one insists on using it he would be
better off making sure that all of the components are at least grounded to
each other. Even if you do not use a Mr Funnel you should endeavor to
maintain contact between the receptacle and pouring spout. Terribly
effective or not.

I posted this yesterday. It showed up on the regular list where we get each message,
but not on this one. Oh by the way, it was not meant to be nasty, frustrated
perhaps, but definately not nasty.

It was a lot of work but I'm happy with the result. They open wider
than
I have shown here. Excellent entrance quality.
Maybe next year some engine/radiator fairings but not as fancy as
uncle Craig's.
Time now for flying, not fixing.

I must tell you all, I was looking in the CPS catalog. The Mr Funnel description
says that the funnel must be grounded while pouring fuel in it to prevent sparks
and fires! Maybe I do deserve to be called a dumbass! I will use the grounding
strap from now on...Mike

I did not call you that, and don't agree with anyone calling anyone that.
Don't worry I think most of us qualify for that title at least once or twice
in our flying career. I am pleased that you had concern and balls enough to
let the rest learn from your mistake.
