I have a Casio EX-Z1080 that I got online for $135 and is an awesome 10 megapixel camera for stills as well as video. It has settings for taking UTube videos so what you download from the camera is ready to go online as is. I would buy a Digital Video camera if you want HD video, but you can not post that quality/size to uTube as I understand it. If you want a video sample I can send one to you to check it out.

Won't be flying this Thanksgiving, but plan to be in Monument Valley, UT, to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with the Navajos at Stagecoach Dining Room, Gouldings Lodge: http://www.gouldings.com/english/dining.htm I may have a small Navajo Taco, never could eat all of a large one, but I bet they will have turkey and dressing. Monument Valley has come to mean a lot to many of us Kolbers who make that journey every May since 2003. I plan on flying in again next May. It will be a special flight, as always. Thanks to Homer Kolb for his work in designing and marketing Kolb Aircraft Kits, giving me a chance to fly after my military flying. Thanks to Bruce Chesnut, Donnie, Travis, Dennis, and the rest of the Kolb gang for keeping our aircraft alive and well through many years of tough going. Take care, john h Moab, UT ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 08:46:50 AM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Rotax 377 on UltraStar From: "jb92563" The conversion From Cuyuna UL-202 to Rotax 377 on my UltraStar is going well. I am drilling holes in the engine mount for the Rotax. Strangely it is nearly a perfect fit to the cross bars with the holes just being slightly off center in the square tubes. Are those chromoly tubes....they are hard to drill! I'll snap some pictures and post the whole conversion process in case someone else want to go that way as well. Interestingly I have been able to use the Cuyuna redrive and exhaust with only minor modifications on the Rotax. I milled out the redrive a little to clear some engine case features and flared the exhaust coupler a bit to fit the Rotax header. All thats left to do is mount the engine and the exhaust pipe. -------- Ray Kolb UltraStar (Cuyuna UL-202) Moni MotorGlider Schreder HP-11 Glider Grob 109 Motorglider Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=216390#216390 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 10:03:56 AM PST US From: "Jean PILLAUDIN" Subject: Kolb-List: landing gear rubber shock absorber Hi, My rubber shock absorber are very tired, is anybody know where I can get these items?

If I remember correctly, you have an Ultrastar? You may be speaking of Ultrastar engine mounts. They are made by Lord, and are available on the internet. Would help if you can read the number on them, or someone may have the number available for you.
