    Good video, Chris. But I gotta ask why you fly such a big long pattern which I think is a bit unusual in our style airplanes. I'm not saying you shouldn't, just curious as to why. do not archive -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x31 A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that works. - John Gaule Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=267894#267894

    Nice video Chris, It looks like it was pretty smooth once you got some altitude. I was going to ask you what the speeds were on the ASI, but you covered it on the captions ! Did you just do one trip around the pattern that day ? Mike -------- &quot;NO FEAR&quot; - If you have no fear you did not go as fast as you could have !!!

    Here is a picture from my last " Flight "... It was windy and gusty here also, I was hoping it would pass, but it only got worse. I barely got the plane back into the hanger in time before my Kolb would have flown on its own :) Mike -------- &quot;NO FEAR&quot; - If you have no fear you did not go as fast as you could have !!!

Did notice the image for the Primer and Fuel Shut Off... Is the ON position UP and OFF position horizontal for that valve? If so, you might want to consider rotating the valve 180 deg. so that ON is down. Although rare, these valves have been know to vibrate and gravity moves them toward the DOWN position. If ON is down, it is more likely to stay down (ON) with vibration. Just a thought....

I can't wait for Saturday. It is supposed to really cool off here and have only a high of 70. It will be nice for our Waycross Flyers Food and Fun. If anyone wants to come by we'll be there having cake and ice cream starting around 11am ET. But let me know if you're coming so I can make sure I have enough. -------- Cristal Waters Kolb Mark II Twinstar Rotax 503 DCSI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=268006#268006
