Broke my plane in September with a hard landing. Sheared off the left
gearleg socket where the aluminum gearleg ends. Got the welding done
at an FAA Repair Station shop because I have no welding experience at
all. I did everything else with a little help on painting from my
local flying buddies. Finished it over Thanksgiving weekend. It turned
out nice, big thanks to Danny Still in Angleton TX for teaching me to
finish paint. Here are some pics:

How can you call anyone ugly with that big a smile on his face?
Sitting under a rotor does that to rotor-heads -- Kolb or not

Sir... They are gettin' "above their raisin'" ... a mortal sin in the
South...

motion, it's time
for either prayer, or a good parachute...
...not sure...but I think Homer scratched that on a Pennsylvania rock
someplace...

Jimmy:
I did that in 1988 to my FS.
During the repairs, we developed 4130 gear legs, extending them all the way
in the socket until they bottomed out at the intersection of the two
sockets. Never had another gear leg shear the socket again, although there
have been many hard landings since then.
Old Kolb designed the system that way. It saved weight and material. It
also created a weak gear leg socket.

For pure guts, she puts me on the night shift...
Enjoy... and marvel... but Do Not Archive...

I almost fell off the couch when I saw this on the
news! The station I was watching had a different video of her, which
showed how she preflights the plane prior to flying, too. It's just
wild! She can unscrew the gas caps, check the oil, climb aboard, enter
the cockpit, and don a seatbelt, simply using her feet. Not only that,
after she's completed her flight, she fills out her flight log writing
with her foot! Boggles the mind how resourceful this young lady is.
