Dana,
I'm not suggesting to anyone that they eliminate tail wheel springs completely
on their cable actuated rudder/tailwheel.
I am not absolutely certain but believe that Sonex uses control rods for rudder
and tailwheel as well as aileron and elevator. I don't think they use cables
for any of the control surfaces or steering mechanizm, both tricycle and tailwheel.
I know they use a Titanium rod for tailwheel stinger and gear legs. It is
not a Kolb but a good airplane that owners rave about.... sort of like Kolbs
in that respect :-).

Question for Jack Hart (Master of all things FireFly...) on his tail wheel modification...
When one of my tail wheel springs gave up I found myself nose down in the tall
grass, facing the wrong direction.
Now that I'm rebuilding my FireFly, I resolved to change to your clever bicycle
spoke design... I gathered together the parts and as I started to assemble it
I realized that the trailing ends of the spokes extend a bit lower than the original
chain and spring set-up.
My question is... Does the bicycle spoke set-up work well in the grass and rough
fields? The spokes are exposed and I wonder if they'll grab the grass and get
bent by flying stones??? As part of my polyester prevention program, my FireFly
never sees the ramp, or any other pavement. Rough describes the fields I use...
I am attracted to John H's shortened tail wheel post modification. I'll measure
for that today.
Ad via, yesterday I passed my PP check ride... Kinda shakes my confidence in the
system to realize theyll let an ageing, "we don't need no stinking badges",
FireFly jockey handle the big iron...
Sorry to see all the posts about snow blowers and freezing rain... We've had a
rough winter too... See...

Thom R/Thanks for posting the videos.
I have related to the Kolb List before about flying the original SS at
Lakeland with a professional photographer and his huge video camera resting
on my shoulder. This was the first passenger I few in the SS. I believe
that footage is included in Kolb Part 3. I don't remember what year that
was, but the pilot sure looks young.

We hate to see you suffering Henry. That sweaty 80F must be tough.
If you want go the easy way on compression springs go to a hardware store (Ace,
Lowes?)and buy two packages
of screen door compression sets. That's what I have on my MkIII. They should
work well on a lighter airplane.
I added reinforcement to the little hook ends with safety wire to keep them from
slipping out of place.
A hard bounce can undo nearly anything man can build.

The SS video began towards the end of pt 2 and finished up in pt 3. Great stuff.
Also saw you (John) flying your MkIII in these videos.
When the weather changes up here in Snowville, I'll be getting the SS back into
flying shape from winter storage, with plans to do some SS videos and will post
to youtube when ready. The winter looks now it will be May at the earliest.
Anyone know if TNK is building Laser kits on order? Anyone know of one flying?

Dear Malcolm,
I have a 377 which had similar intermittent problems. I had two forced landings.
(FireStars don't stay up long running on one cylinder.) The first landing
was in the trees. Fortunately a friend with a Hui was near and had me back on
land with-in an hour. I never unbuckled my seat belt. Praise-be to cell phones
and Helis. The second time I was trying to find the problem by holding full
throttle for several minutes while over the airstrip. Happy landing on that
one. The culprit = coils were breaking down.
Good luck,
Dave

Henry,
I really believe it is less susceptible to damage than the original setup.
There is less mechanism for things to catch on.
I have flown it in and out of grass fields and made one landing in a bean
field and nothing has ever caught on it.
My sympathies in that you reside in the only state in the union that has no
snow fall.

The photo is on the first post of this thread. At that time, I had not painted
the aluminum.
If you are having trouble finding it, email me direct and I can send you more.
I'll be at the hanger tomorrow & can take more detailed photos if you would like.
I've got the stiffener struts made, but had to order a longer bolt so they
are not on yet.

Jack,
Thanks for the reassurance... I will continue with your design.
Sometime back I went looking for compression springs, but found none locally. Maui
is sortta the end of the hardware supply food chain... It was easier to follow
your parts numbers and order from McMasters than locate springs here.
Ya, I read a headline stating the Hawaii was the only state spared snow... Geographically
challenged... Both Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa are snow capped all winter.

Subject: | test flight with the spot. |
Today I could find no reason to not fly. Weather was 50 degrees on the
ground, wind was not blowing on the ground as well. I did have a 10 mile
an hour tail wind on the way out once I got out of the hill shadow.
Things have been pretty quiet, the weather has been a bit too unsettled
to do much more than catch up on my reading. Now my eye strain is bad
enough to make an effort to get out and do something, anything!
I have always been very aware of the worry that Karen goes through every
time that I go flying by myself. The country here is the least populated
in all of Oregon, I am sure that it ranks up there with some other parts
of the US as well. I installed a base aircraft radio to help and while
the range is as much as 60 miles it requires one to be pretty high to
accomplish that kind of range. I prefer to be within a hundred feet of
the ground, so it means that if I decided to do something other than
what I told her before leaving, I need to climb up high enough to talk
to her. Wastes gas something awful.
I bought a Spot Messenger last year, but I did not get the tracking
feature. Too cheap! It seemed to work somewhat, but the lack of a
permanent placement in the plane caused it to be of limited use. I
decided to purchase the tracking feature this year. I could say that it
was for Karen, but some of the places that I go are really hard to get
there from here, and I don't like walking all that much. We will just
say that it seems like a good deal for both of us.
There is a "Gap Seal" between the wings of "Dart" that is made of Lexan,
so I made a holder that would keep its antenna pointed to the sky. It
worked sitting in front of the hanger, but it needed a flight to really
give it a good test.
Today the weather seemed to invite flying so I rolled her out, dressed
warm and took off for Arock. It was apparent that the wind was blowing
at about 10 MPH from the West when I got up out of the wind shadow that
shades the airstrip. The temps at 5000 feet was 40 degrees, so I wasn't
sorry that I had put on my warm clothes. The plane and engine preformed
flawlessly although I will put some tape on the oil cooler the next time
I fly. The oil temps never got over 130 degrees, a bit cool for proper
operation. I stayed at 1000 feet agl and checked some of the ponds and
rabbit spots that we hunted Jessie and Peg (the hawk and falcon) on this
fall.
In all the trip took 74 minutes and I burned 3.5 gallons of gas. I
covered a bit more than 60 miles and even though I was down to 50 MPH
coming back, I still averaged 60 MPH.
The wind was right for the short cross wind strip and I had drug it and
rolled it, so I was interested in how it would feel. My landings are
sometimes a thing of wonder. (wonder how anyone who has the hours that I
have, can land so crappy. ) Except the first ones after a long lay off.
My Golf games are like that too, the longer I play or fly the worse my
game and the landing get. I can't explain it, unless I just get
careless. Any way I started letting down about a mile from the strip,
did just like my instructor had told me so many times and depending on
my position either gave it gas, or allowed it to bleed off altitude, and
made one of those landings that no one ever sees, a perfect three point
landing with so little roll out that I had to give it gas to get to the
turn off to the hanger. It is only 320 feet from the fence to the
hanger. Oh well, someday I will be able to do that every time. Yeah,
right!
I was pleased with the results of the test, I had nine tracking points,
that should make life or life flight easier.

Goggle "Spot" and it will take you to their home page. There was even an
article in AOPA's mag this month. I think I paid $97 bucks for the main
service and 48 for the tracking. What the hell, its only money, but it
does keep the little lady happier, and will me as well if I ever manage
to ball things up. I do not fly what is considered safe as there are
generally no roads where I want to go. Most of the GA guys would crap
their pants in the places where the little Firestar takes me. I have
done all that I can to stack the odds on my side, and the spot is one
way to do that.
If you go to the link on the previous email you can see the track that I
flew. If you click on one of the little balloons you will have the Lat
and Long of the area that I was when the spot transmitted. At my speed
it narrows the search area to about 6 miles if I should crash 9 minutes
from the last send. It sends every 10 minutes. It will allow you to send
an "OK", a request for "help" (this one is a non panic request) and a
"911" as well as the tracking feature. You can specify who gets any of
the three messages. It is about the cheapest insurance available for me.
A flight plan for me to tool around the area is not feasible.
