Subject: | Nauga Field Fly-Around - Two week notice |
TWO WEEK NOTICE!
The 3rd Annual Nauga Field Fly-Around will be held December 4th, 5th, and 6th.
Looks like there will be about 6 Kolbs attending. A few other alternate forms
of aviation too. I have sent out details to the folks that have let me know they
will be attending. I didn't want to post other people's iternaries on the
web. Not a good idea these days.
So if you are planning to attend and did not get an individual e-mail with details,
let me know.
Glad to answer answer any questions you may have.

I know many pilots and a few true aviators. There is a distinct difference that
I have the greatest respect for.

Hey Guys, Anyone close to Hilliard FL. who could look at a plane for

I'm putting a 20+ gal aluminum fuel tank in my kolb MIII. It rests on a
0.125" thick aluminum tray which is riveted to the fuselage cage. My
question is how to strap to the tray. Those of you with similar tanks, do
you use straps and if so, are they metal or nylon. I've seen nylon straps
used before on an aluminum tank installation but am concerned that they
might not be strong enough.

How is the tray attached? Remember a chain is only as strong as the
weakest link.
On the bottom of my 16 gal alum tank, there are 2 pieces of alum angle
welded to the bottom of the tank. They are installed so that they match the
tubing that the stock tank support tray would have sat on. There are some
tabs welded to the support tubing. And the aluminum angle is bolted to the
tabs. The mounting bolts go through some rubber grommets to give some
vibration dampening and the tank is also grounded to the frame.
Make sure that if in an accident the tank does not come loose from its
mounting, sheer the fuel lines, well nuf said.

Subject: | Re: Metal fuel pickup from TNK |
Hello Mike,
Thanks for your post regarding the availability of an all metal pick up from Kolb.
It really got me to check with TNK about its availibility.
I suppose TNK should publish all periodic improvements in their Kolb airplanes
month or year wise to help us know and improve on existing design.
I will ask Travis about it..
Thanks,

I repainted my WD prop yesterday with Krylon "Fusion", their paint for
plastics. The can directions say it's usable down to 50 degrees and I had
the paint at about 65 and the prop at maybe 60. It shot on real well, flowed
out nicely and just as they say it was dry to the touch in about an hour. I
let it dry in the house overnight and though there was no noticeable smell
it did seem to outgas a bit more as the balance changed slighty by this
morning. Put the prop back on this afternoon and took it for a flight. Even
in the cool fall weather I managed to collect a few bugs and some exhaust
soot, all of which wiped right off. For what it's worth 2 thumbs up.
