Subject: | Re: 100LL long term vs. alkie |
Just my 2 cents worth on 100LL. When doing the annual on the Champ I was
flying the lower plugs were fouled with so much lead you could hardly chip
it out with a ice pick. The IA at the airport told me that 100LL contained 7
times the lead that the old car leaded gas had, just hearsay. I am using a
mixture of about 25% 100 LL to car gas in my VW powered Turbulent.

Ed,
The date is Saturday, June 14th. I was just going to contact Clara &
Homer to check that everything is still OK with them. I will be asking
for a count of who is coming later in the month when the guys get back
from MV. I do this to give Clara & Homer a heads up on how many to expect.
Hope your getting some good flying in with your FireFly these days. We
are having good flying weather up here.

The "Q" as a subject is because I'm either very efficient, or very
lazy, or both. Probably lazy,.
When I type in Q as a subject, I then only have to slide my finger an
inch to the left to hit 'tab' and start typing the message.
How lazy can a guy get?

Well since noone is saying anything, I don't know about the mark III but the FSII
did more or less the same thing as you describe. Power-idle and fully coordinated
into the stall, it'd give a nice clean break and drop the nose forward
a bit. Very nice and gentle, very controllable. You do have to be a bit "forward"
with the stick to get it fully flying again if you recover without power.
No problem.
Cross-controlled stalls especially with some power on would drop a wing down in
a very definite manner, but recovery was easy by simply releasing back pressure
on the stick and applying opposite rudder. Again nothing unexpected or wild.
I recall doing a couple of falling leaf stalls and was able to hold it for quite
a long time before it eventually felt like an incipient spin entry was about
to happen.
I don't believe the Kolbs are approved for spins so I never attempted one in mine.
Therefore I have no idea how it would recover from a spin.
But from what I recall it was a very stable plane, especially considering there's
only 1" of dihedral and no washout in the wing panels.....

Subject: | Email Ettiquette |
Mr John W.,
I agree with you regarding posting the proper subject in the subject line,
but while we're on the subject of email etiquette, how about these others items
of consideration?
1) When you change the subject and go off on some tangent to the original subject,
how about CHANGING the subject line? This would be especially useful for
someone to look up information later in the archives.
2) How about SIGNING your name? Why do you leave it to us to go searching for
who you are? It's like listening to someone talking to you from another room...and
we have to go figure out who you are!
3) When signing your name, how about identifying your Kolb affiliation? As in
MkIII, Firefly, Firestar, Ultrastar, etc. You help us know your realm of flying.
Don't assume everyone knows who you are.
4) How about answering someones question nicely? (rather than ignore them)
While your flight experience may not see the use of their concern, why not politely
explain to them why you feel the way you do. Who knows? Maybe they will
come around to your way of thinking!!
My apologies for preaching. It's just that I feel this needed to be said.
You can beat me up now.

To defend myself, I don't always have time to answer ever email that is
posted to the Kolb List that I could comment on based on my own personal
experience. If I did, I'd be sitting here at the computer rather than
out flying, which I am about to do.
Going to do a 120 sm cross country to get an idea how my mkIII is really
flying before I load up and fly to MV. Flying around the patch or 10
miles over to the local airport does not tell me what the airplane is
going to do on a long cross country flight.

Hi, Mike -
My Mark-3 is back together (with upgrades) and I'm finally doing engine
test runs. But I still need to do a pneumatic synch of the carbs before
it flies. Probably won't happen before next week, which is why I begged
a ride to MV from Dave Rains. Dave's "Cessna Air Taxi Service to
Monument Valley" is great! Dave graciously flew me up to MV in his 175
four years ago. When Dave and Will pick me up in Cedar Crest, they'll
probably have a sandwich and a cold soda waiting for me, for the flight
up. Those guys will do all the complicated and important stuff up
front, while I just sit in the back seat and enjoy the scenery! (and my
sandwich)

Hi Bill S:
The aluminum tubes that bush the gear leg sockets are pushed into place.
Weld spatter where there is burn through locks the tube in place, plus
corrosion helps lock it in almost permanently. Will take some elbow
grease and barn yard engineering to remove them.
FS came out in 1985.
I started building mine in 1986, flying it for the first time in 1987.
My first flight in a Kolb was my US in 1984. Took me 3 months to build.
Flew pretty good for my first flight as pilot in a fixed wing. I was
rotary wing, but not fixed wing rated in the Army. Had no problem
taking off and flying around. Had a little problem landing in an
enclosed cow pasture with 600 feet of grass and no brakes. After my
first flight, I replaced the broken prop, my Brother Jim welded up some
new main gear and repaired the little curved up nose. Took it back over
to the cow pasture, took off, flew the pattern and landed. What I
learned on my first flight paid off on my second. Never had another
problem landing a fixed wing, the basics anyhow..

Bill, the gear legs are secured in the welded sockets with 1/4" bolts. I greased
mine when they were installed. I've replaced them once with heavier legs and
they are easy to take out if I need to. The Original Firestar had an aluminum
tube around the leg so the replacements needed this taken out before installation.
These legs are sold as "Firefly" legs at TNK.

Subject: | Re: Email Ettiquette |
Mr Welch,
You basically sent the following:
Email etiquette, how about these others items of consideration?
1) When you change the subject and go off on some tangent to the original subject,
how about CHANGING the subject line?
2) How about SIGNING your name?
3) When signing your name, how about identifying your Kolb affiliation?
4) How about answering someones question nicely?
* I personally stick to the subject line and don't go off on a tangent.
* Every post I make to this list includes my Signature Block on file with this
Email List.
* As outlined in the Matronics Official Kolb-List Usage Guidelines, I have my Kolb
affiliation listed in every Signature Block.
* Even thou I would like to bust one on some of the List Members after a lot of
their posts, I have chosen to just ignore them for my personal reasons. If I
respond to a post, it will be in as civil tone as I know how.
If you meant your post to me, thank you. If you meant your post to the rest of
the Kolb List, thank you.
Hey John H, The confusor must have changed the spelling of Kolbra in my signature
block. When I check on it, it is correct. So if you see
"Kimbra" that is also me.

Mike mentioned that I had supplied him with some helpful information in his fabrication
of his gear legs.
Just so there is no misunderstanding.....
A lot of the information and improvements that I passed on, I received from John
and Brother Jim Hauck.
Just got to give credit, where credit is due.
Thanks again John H and Bro Jim.

Thanks too much,

We lose good people "All the time"....
Some just get tired of "ignoring" it....
Or of getting " free for all'd "
Sometimes it's like reading the "funnies"

Subject: | Re: Who's going to Monument Valley? |
Hi MV2008 folks,
I hope I won't be banned from the list for
fudging the subject and letting you know that I
won't be able to make MV2008. I hope somebody
will miss me, at least a little, and I will try
to get there next year.

those Texan judges you bought......or a hired?:-)

Subject: | Minnesota Kolb guys |
Jim L., and all other Kolb guys in Minnesota,
May I ask where you are located in Minnesota? My oldest son is home from Afganistan
on vacation, to sign papers to buy his new house he had built in Buffalo,
MN. (The other son got back from Iraq (permanently) a month ago, to Evergreen,
Alabama. Man, what a pretty state!)
This oldest one will be around for two more weeks, then back to Afg-land.
I'm trying to talk him into buying a Kolb, since he recently said he may work
on training to be a corporate pilot for a career, after he leaves Afg-land.
Anyway, my oldest has mentioned in the past he may buy an "ultralight". It
would be nice if there were some Kolbs in the area he could go watch.
Both of my kids were in the military, but they are/were civilian contractors
in Iraq/Afganistan. The oldest has an interest in flying. The youngest doesn't.
I don't like him as much.

Subject: | Monument Valley Flyin Questions |
I'm hoping to fly in Friday with my son in the back seat and wife
following in the minivan. Really looking forward to seeing the country
and finally meeting some of yous guys in person. The plan is to trailer
the F2 to Sedona AZ and take a relatively short flight from there -
looks like a beautiful trip. What frequency does everyone use for MV
traffic? Do I need to call Gouldings before flying in (since it's
private)? Any other advice for a first time MV trip?
Thanks,
