My apologies to the purists=99 among us however the video toward the
middle of
the Barnstormers=99 newsletter was interesting. Since our birds are
STOL,

A STOL competition in Alaska I wonder if John H has seen this event.

| Subject: | Urgent Kolb Firestar II Empty weights w/ options? |
I have some questions that I need answered ASAP. I have plans to buy a Kolb Firestar
II this Saturday. When I talked to the guy I was under the impression that
this plane would carry two normal sized adults. Now I am concerned that this
plane might not work. This is a 2000 year kit finished in 2004 with a rotax
503 electric start, Ivo 3 blade prop, hotbox, BRS, strobes and Battery.
Kolbs website says max gross weight is 725# I talked to Travis at Kolb and he
said its now 760# . The designer of the plane in Canada did not know the weight
was raised.
I want to convert the plane to 2 seat by installing the sling seat however I believe
its going to be over gross weight with 2 normal sized people. Kolb did not
recommend going over gross weight.
Max weight of 2 pilots would not exceed 340#
The guy told me the plane with him in it full of fuel(10gallons) weights 630 to
640#. I cant remember exactly but it was over 600. He said he weight 150# and
10 gallons of fuel should be about 60#.
When I asked him he said the weight might have been off on the scales?
Will you guys give me the empty weight of your Kolb FirestarIIs along with what
options you have on the plane?
What do you guys thing should I go with two seats on this one or get a Mark III?
Travis at Kolb told me their FirestarII Weighs 325# empty but it does not have
a BRS, electric start, a Battery or much of anything.
Thanks,
Grant
