    Subject: Nauga "Get Well" Video
    From: "John Bickham" <gearbender@bellsouth.net>
    Well, I thought John H would prefer a Kolb flying video to some sappy get well card. This is my first flight in close to five months. I can give you my list of excuses, but won't. Finally boils down to priorities not right. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Szp1waiP4a0 Some of you that have visited me at Nauga will notice a few changes. The trees have been removed on the SW end. Still got the power line though! Due to the record rainfall that started last September, I've been working on the drainage. I took out some of the motocross whoopties (low spots). Since some folks have issues with that. [Twisted Evil] Crested the center a bit more. Hopefully, the grass and John H's leg will be grow'd back about the same time. The humidity and mist was it's normal super high. This was my first try with a new camera. Got a lot of shake. I think I need to sandwich the mount in some foam. If any of you semi-pro Kolb vidoegraphers (Larry) got a suggestion, I'm a listening. Sorry about the shake but hope you enjoy. Not as much scenic beauty as Larry's stuff but a lot more trees! Respectfully offer my appreciation to those that have served and sacrificed and to those no longer with us on this Memorial Day. -------- Thanks too much, John Bickham Mark III-C w/ 912UL St. Francisville, LA I know many pilots and a few true aviators. There is a distinct difference that I have the greatest respect for.

    The video looked good. Where you mount it seems to be the biggest factor, but a foam base will improve any place that it is mounted.

    John B/Gang: A superb example of what a Kolb is and normal Kolb style flying, close to the ground, enjoying the country and a beautiful day. Bet I know how John B felt when the MKIII mains broke ground for the first time in nearly 5 months, freedom as he entered into the world of Kolb flight. It is obvious to me that John B has done a great deal of work improving Nauga Field since the last time I landed there. I had the distinct pleasure of making the first landing and takeoff from John B's new airstrip in Dec 2005. Thank you sir, for the wonderful Nauga "Get Well" Video. john h ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Bickham" <gearbender@bellsouth.net> Sent: Monday, May 31, 2010 5:30 AM Subject: Kolb-List: Nauga "Get Well" Video > > Well, > > I thought John H would prefer a Kolb flying video to some sappy get well > card.

    Gang, When you buy Temperfoam from Hi tech foams ,the first question they ask is "what do you weigh?The cushions I get by answering 170# have been 3 color s glued together,firm on the bottom ,blue I think,pink in the middle,and white on top.There is more to it than just 2 or 3 inches.There are lots of places to buy foam,but not many that can tailor it to your tush like these people.

    Subject: Re: Seat cushions
    Just a suggestion- Oregon Aero's seats are nice, but they are not tailored for Kolbs. Might be best to give them an idea of what your seat looks like and the measurements of it. If not they send you a generic Cessna seat.

    From: "JetPilot" <orcabonita@hotmail.com>
    I hope you get back in the air soon John. Your Kolb is indeed very fast, both mine and the other MK III here in Miami cruise at 70 MPH. It just feels really good there, I could do 75, but after that I just hit a wall and am burning so much more gas to and almost full power to hit 80. I am very happy with 70 MPH at less than 4 GPH and 4200 RPM cruise, it feels perfect. The other Kolb, Fat albert has an 80 HP 912, and cruises at almost the exact same speed as mine. Mike -------- &quot;NO FEAR&quot; - If you have no fear you did not go as fast as you could have !!!
