Rick,
The builder of my Slingshot replaced the standard SS seat (not sling type) with
a plastic molded seat with a somewhat padded slip cover. See attached photo.
I think he scavenged it from one of those inexpensive chairs they used to use
in a middle school cafeterias and removed the legs. He liked it better than the
standard seat but I did not, so I put the original back in.
The standard SS seat is a board with padding for the seat bottom and another board
with padding for the seat back. They snugly fit inside the tubing frames for
the seat bottom and the fold-forward seat back. This makes access to everything
beneath and behind the seat very quick and easy. Can't do that with the after-market
seat. Sorry I don't have photos of the standard seat.

Rick & Aaron,
I forgot to mention that I owned and flew a Rans S6 until my partner broke it.
The standard S6 seats are very comfortable and light weight with fold-forward
seat back. I have no idea how costly they are but my guess is they won't be cheap
unless you can find them from salvage.

Yes, I was a passenger with Gary, but I confess I didn't pay much
attention to the seat. I'm just under 6 feet and 190 lbs, and the
seat was fine, and comfortable.
I was having too much fun flying the Kolb, and impressed with Gary's
flying skills, to think about seats much.

| Subject: | new Firefly now in Durham |
Well it's been a while but the new plane is finally here. Last month I
bought the blue & yellow FF that was in WA, and the FF trailer in IL (both
on Barnstormers in Feb.). It was safely shipped to Paxton, IL and loaded
onto the new trailer. I thank all the contributors with suggestions on
preparing it for travel on an open trailer. A small band of
brothers-of-the-air helped prep it and it made it back in fine shape. The
only damage was a loose pitot tube mounting plate on the nose cone. We had
quite a few people come over and look when we stopped to eat or get fuel and
I guess someone bumped into it.
We got a big roll of bubble wrap and covered the outsides of the wings and
then used about a half a roll of stretch wrap (pallet wrap from Home Depot)
and covered her up against the weather. I also secured one blade of the
prop to the boom with an extension and some duct tape. We ran into lots of
rain, some snow and some buffeting winds but she came through it all.
Right now she sits under the carport on the trailer with a tarp over her.
The local EAA Chapter 1114 was very helpful in finding some hangar space
with one of its members. I need to get my own insurance (liability only)
before taking it there and that is becoming a challenge. USUA insurance
require the pilot hold their training registration and that the plane be
registered with them. The training, as I read it, must be with one of their
BFI's and there are none listed in NC. I am waiting for a call back from
the EAA Insurance agent. Any other suggestions?
Equally challenging is finding an instructor. I am trying to find a
tailwheel instructor, CFI, for my 7 hours of dual time and I had hoped there
would be one at every airport. Not the case! I want to complete the EAA UL
Pilot Registration so I will need 7 hrs. dual and 3 hrs. supervised solo. I
also want to get some dual time in a two seater Kolb but have not been able
to locate one. I found some old posts searching for NC in the archives but
if anybody knows any current owners please let me know. There is rumor of a
2 place Kolb in Hillsborough, NC and that would be ideal ... but no name or
contact info could be found. :-(

Got a chance to pick up a 4:1 C box fairly reasonably, idea is to reduce prop speed
~ prop noise. Anybody on the list using one on a 582, and what sort of prop
are you using?
How do you like it?

I have a 4:1 gearset in a "C" box driving a 66" Warp Drive prop. I like it,
seems to work good. People tell me it's relatively quiet for a 2 stroke.
Even though my Mk III is a bit heavy at 545 lb. empty it climbs like the
proverbial homesick angel. Flying single I cannot get a departure stall to
break, it just bobs the nose a bit.

Naturally, the BFI program ended with the implementation of Sport
Pilot. They'll accept an FAA pilot certificate, of course, and I get the
impression that a solo signoff from a CFI is also acceptable. The people
at First Flight Insurance (USUA's underwriter) are very helpful and can
answer your questions.

It's a three blade with straight blades and square tips. I get 82 IAS at
6200 RPM, but I run 62 IAS at 5200 mostly for economy and longevity and
almost never go above 5600 RPM in level flight.

Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted. Now All I have to do is see if I can change
my 2 blade Ivo to a 3 blade and use it, or do I need to sell the Ivo and go
to a 3 blade Warp.
