Hi all,
now that I am finally within spittin` distance of getting my Xtra back
in the air I want to fit an external arial to the Icom A22 which I
bought from John Hauk a couple of years ago.
Any pointers where it should be fitted or any helpful pointers?. I
presume that well away from the engine is a good idea so I am
considering somewhere under the cockpit cage. Between the u/c legs for
instance. Ideas anyone?.
Pat

Subject: | Re: Mk ll maxumum weight |
Mike, big bro doesn`t care what you raise it to.Claim 1500 if you want, but
during your 5 hour phase one flight testing, (after you get your
airworthiness cert), you will put in the A/C log books, the limits at which
you flew it & then you will sign off on it, for instance, if you list VNE at
100, then only flew it to 90, that basically what you are saying it has been
tested to & then, you , or the next owners, legally can`t fly it beyond
90.Same with weight, test it to only 900 lbs gross, & thats the new limit.
Thats the way my DAR explained it to me anyhow. Jim

When I put the antenna on mine, I had the advice of an FAA technician
whom I worked with. Simply, as far as possible from other metal objects
that protrude from the surface, and with a metal ground plane. So I slid
a sheet of thin aluminum to lay between the boom tube and the side tube,
on the lower fabric in the aft part of the cage behind the cross tube
that goes between the landing gear. The antenna is mounted in the middle
of the ground plane, and turns back to parallel the boom. Works quite
well. Picture here -

Subject: | Silent Cayuna, Ultrastar |
As I wrote about three weeks ago, my UL202 went silent with a no problem
off field landing. I thought it was time for an update.
The preliminary checks showed lack of spark, unfortunately in my quest
to make sure everything else was OK I found the rear cylinder to have a
fair amount of scuffing. With 177 hours on the top end and no knowledge
of total time on the engine I don't think a rebuild is the smart thing
to do.
My questions are, has anyone out there put a rotax on a Ultrastar? Does
anyone have a used engine that would be appropriate? Or anyone have any
interest in a Ultrastar without a motor?

Dan,A 377 or 447 rotax would work just fine on your Ultrastar. Ive even
seen a beefed up US with a 503 on it but would stick with the smaller
engines myself.I beleive I saw a zero timed provision 8 377 on Ebay or
Barnstormers recently that was around $1000. That little engine has a
grat rep for durability and power.

Subject: | Re: Herding geese and cats |
Herding Geese and cats sounds like great fun !! I herd birds whenever I get
the chance :) I dont get to worried about bird strikes in the Kolb because
of the slow speeds involved. If you are flying at 60 MPH, you only have 1/4
the impact energy as you do in a general aviation airplane at 120 MPH.
As far as comparing bird strikes to a jet, its not even in the same league, there
is no comparison. Hitting a bird at 250 knots in a jet has 20 times the energy
as hitting one at 60 MPH in a Kolb, so saying " look at what that bird
did to that jet " is just kind of stupid when talking about slow flying Kolbs.
Im not saying go out and hit a bird, but I am saying lets keep it real here,
there is no comparison.
Second thing is, high speeds is what birds have a problem avoiding. Birds are
very good at getting out of the way at 60 MPH of a Kolb, they have a much harder
time at 120 MPH of general aviation airplanes, and evolution never gave them
the instinct of how to get out of the way at 280 MPH jet speeds. I see it
and thier reactions all the time.

Folks has anyone besides me having difficulty in getting parts from Aircraft spruce?
It seems that practically every order I send them I get a reply that items are
on back order.
I order usually run of the mill items, this last one was some extra 4130 steel
tubes and strips.
I like Spruce on account that they are in Corona CA and my orders show up within
a couple of days with Ground transport. But I may need to look at other suppliers
if they can't deliver.

You might also talk to Boyd Young about an internal antenna that doesn't
need the metal ground plane. Works very well, and costs next to

I had occasion to recover my airframe this year, and I had mounted it
right behind the front seat. I had revited a piece of flat alum for a
ground plane there. I had some problems with the 503 (previous was a
447) causing static. I fixed up a mount at the top of wind screen
thinking that the reception would be better since it was the farthest
from aany thing as I could get. I ended up going back to the mount on
the bottom of the cage.Just seemed to work better. The antenna wire is
bent as is described by Mr Pike.Larry C

Subject: | Proper Rudder Cable Route |
Hello Group,
While re-hooking up my rudder cables, I got to looking INSIDE the long
fuselage tube, from the very back of the tube. To my dismay, I see that I
had previously (years ago) ran the rudder cables UNDER the 5/8" X 7" bolt
(that goes horizontally through the fuselage tube and secures the back of
the cage frame).
Now, since I haven't flown this airplane yet, this isn't a problem,
except for rerouting the cables correctly, to go from the rudder horn holes,
STRAIGHT to the guide holes with the little nylon bushings.
IF the Kolb manual mentions the correct way, I missed that page. Plus,
there is of course, some obvious common sense, too, to rig it correctly,
even if the book doesn't tell you to. Duh! And, I do know I didn't
consider what I presently had as "a finished product." I only temporarily
rigged the rudder, but, even still, I ran the cables on the below the cross
bolt. (Big no-no)
The reason I even bring it up is: It is ENTIRELY possible no one would
have ever caught this error. The rudder worked absolutley fine as it was
rigged!! But it was wrong!!! The rudder cables inside the 6" aluminum tube
would have chafed "NON-STOP" against the underside of the horizontal bolt
that holds the fuselage tube solid to the frame.
Now, maybe I'm the only goofball that every hooked something up wrong.
(At least I caught it.) But, just in case someone else overlooked this
correct routing of the rudder cables, I'd recommend a quick inspection, just
to be sure!! (As a side note, the elevator's cables are supposed to go
below the big bolt.)
A quick view with a flashlight, from the extreme back end of the fuselage
tube, looking for the rudder cables to make a straight shot from rudder
horn---to nylon guide....touching nothing in between.
As I said, I'm probably the only guy that ever makes a mistake, but just
in case...........I thought I'd mention this, for what it's worth.
Mike in SW Utah
Kolb MkIIIC, but I think this rigging situation could affect most Kolbs.

Subject: | 503 rotax engine problem report. (Jim Swan) |
Hello gang,
I reported a couple of weeks back the trouble I had with the 503 rotax on
my firestar ll running irregular on take off, like it was not getting enough
gas. Well I test flew it for about 30 min. this even. And it ran just like it
should. I replaced the pulse fuel pump,filter, installed a electric fuel
pump and put in a 3 amp battery, also replaced the plug wires. I done away with
the primer bulb and plumbed everthing in series. It started very well using
the elec. Pump to fill the carb. Bowls, I gave it a couple of shots of primer
and it started the 1st pull, took off with elec fuel pump to 1,000 feet then
shut off elect. Plane ran fine on pulse pump after about 30 min. I saw Rick
Nielson with his kolb mk lll powered with a volkswagon engine landing at my
strip so I came in to visit with him. His mk lll performs very well with the
volkswagon, he gets off in a short distance and climbs well, sounds good
also.Rick only lives about 15 miles from me so we often land at each others
strips. I have a bit of problem with my battery, it was hot and must have been
over charged. I am using a key west regulator and I guess I will contact them
and see what I got wrong. Will do some more flying in the morning. Oh yes I
also pulled the exhaust system and checking the pistons and rings, they
looked better that the last time I checked them. Thanks for all the input, you
guys do good.

Subject: | Hirth 2703 Update |
Finished putting everything back together on the Challenger and the Hirth
2703 this afternoon and got in a quick test flight. The highest CHT I saw on
taxi was 300. It rose to 400 during the climb to pattern altitude at 6200
RPM, but quickly settled back to 280 when I leveled out and throttled back
to 5700. All this on the first 100 degree day of the year.
So what's changed other than the fan belt?
I stripped the exhaust system to check the pistons for signs of seizure. No
marks or signs of metal transfer on either. I did find that the
thermocouples for the CHT gauge were installed without removing the spark
plug insulator per the engine manual. I also spent a lot of time removing
every last shred of the old belt until the fan turned like a pinwheel when I
blew on it. There was a small crack in the fan shroud that required welding.
The entire fuel system was rebuilt. The exhaust system was a mess held
together with grade 8 bolts and insulators that were installed without
clearance or compression limiters.
Were any or all of these enough to cause the high temps? Partial fuel
starvation from collapsed lines, a small exhaust leak or two, a small leak
in the shroud. I suspect that when the owner replaced the fan belt he was
less than thorough in removing belt debris from the fan bearings, but it's
just a suspicion. I know he didn't clean the mating surfaces of the drive
pulley and the flywheel, so there may have been some wobble in the pulley
that accelerated the fan belt's destruction in 25 hours. The fan belt may
have been loose, too.
I can only use the information the owner gave me about seeing CHT's of 490
after a long taxi, and in the 450+ range while climbing. I know I saw 540+
on one head and 510+ on the other, but all this was done with the
thermocouples installed improperly.
I must say that overall I'm pretty impressed with how robust this engine is.
If the readings from the CHT gauge were anywhere near accurate, it received
some severe abuse and seems to have shrugged it off. Don't know how it will
work out in the long run. For now, I just need it to go another 20 hours or
so.
