    Pat, what armrest?>> Hi Vic, I have a piece of metal fitted over the rod from the stick to the aileron. It is about 18" long and 3" wide on the flat top and has side cheeks bent down to enclose the aileron rod. About the only place anything can be atached on the Xtra. Poor ergonomic design where everything was sacrificed to produce the fantastic visibilty and that admittedly very shapely nose. Pat

    Kudos though since you lasted the week without getting shot down. Nobody got "shot down" Not the purpose There must be some sort of Plaque or Trophy for that feat right? Paycheck $$$$ Guess those Coast Guard boys don't aim very well. That would be a fatal guess Skeeter Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=136500#136500

Will take about two hours flight time to "marry up" with you and John B. ;-) Looking forward to seeing all the Kolb folks at Labhart Field tomorrow. Yesterday I checked the float bowls on the 912ULS. One had three drops of crud, the other had one drop, as the result of moisture. When I scratched the blackish brown colored grung with my finger nail, little flakes broke off that may or may not have been pulled all the way through the main and needle jet. The main jet well fence was doing its job. None of the "stuff" had hopped the fence and gotten into the well. I try to pull the carb float bowls at least once a month. I must admit, I got lazy and did not pull them for about two months. This is an easy way to have an engine failure. No matter how good the 912 series engines are, contaminated fuel will put them down. Play safe. john h mkIII

    Hi Pat, I assume that you are using an Icom radio as do most of us here in the Uk, if so there is space to mount it on the left of the main instrument pod, mounted in this position it doesn't interfere with getting in and out of the cockpit, and also it is clear of your legs/knees when flying, in this position it is very readily accessible, if you need photos of how I did mine, post me your e-mail address and I'll send you a couple of photos.

    Subject: Space for radio mounting
    Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what headsets work best (in a Kolb F irestar context) with an Icom radio? I'm replacing my old Yaesu radio whic h went kaput, but now find that my old Lightspeed Solo headset (which I rea lly like, for its quietness) won't work with the new Icom A6 radio! ( it DO ES work with the older Icom A3, but that's beside the point, since they're no longer sold) . . . I've pretty much accepted that I'm going to have to buy a new headset too . . . Any suggestions?

    Lee, why not go to your local friendly avionics man? He knows WHY a headset won't work, and if it can be made to. Isn't it time for some expert advice?

Lee, you probably need a mike amplifier, along with whatever plug adapters are necessary. I'm pretty sure (gonna try it tomorrow if I don't go flying) that my Comtronics helmet won't work with my new A24 (same as the A6 but with VOR), but an electronics guru friend sketched up a simple amp circuit to boost the helmet mike to the signal level the A6/A24 is expecting. If it works I'll make it available. Some good information on communications equipment at: http://www.aerialpursuits.com/comms/menu.htm -Dana -- -- "I'm a lawyer." "Honest?" "No, the usual kind."

    Hey Guy's... Here is the way I have my radio set-up .Don't look at my automotive wrinkle paint that is all coming off. Now I get to do it all over again.I use a kneeboard that I strap to my right leg that hold my GPS and charts. It places the GPS in good viewing position. The holder for my ICOM A-22 is also in good viewing and easy to see when changing the frequencies. I hope this helps.
