    Subject: Re: flap info for MK lll needed
    From: "Thom Riddle" <riddletr@gmail.com>
    Speaking of Full FLaps..... As I was returning to my home airport after my flight Monday morning, the prevailing winds at pattern altitude were favoring my planned use of runway 6. Since I was approaching from the SE I flew the cross wind leg a little off the departure end of rwy 6 with the intention of turning to left downwind for rwy 6. Once I got close enough to see the windsock hanging straight down, I decided I might as well land on 24 since its threshold was just to my left about 100 yards and 800 feet below me. I turned final pulled on full flaps (first time ever on landing) and pushed the nose down to Vfe (top of white arc) which is 70 mph in the Slingshot. That was a fun and fast descent with plenty of energy left over for flare and the touchdown was nice and easy. I've flown only two other airplanes that can do this maneuver reliably and with confidence at such a steep descent rate. A Zenith CH-701 and a short wing (20') Titan Tornado. One has full length flaperons like the Slingshot and the other huge barn-door flaps that extend to 40 degrees, like the MkIII. I really really really like my Slingshot but Kolbs are not the only airplanes in which this sort of steep approach can be made, but doing them gracefully is an acquired skill. I've only got about 32 hours time in my Slingshot since I bought it last August so I'm still learning its tricks. That said, I normally don't use any flap(eron) at all during take-off nor landing, but it is very nice to have this capability when it is needed or desired. -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY (9G0) Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x32 I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it. - Pablo Picasso Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=300673#300673

    Subject: Re: sea foam
    I dont want to start a battle about sea foam but I have recently tried a sea foam product call deep creep. It is a mult use penetrating lub. I have to say, as a mechanic for about a hundred years, this is absolutely the best stuff I have ever used. It has a spray distance of at least ten feet. Not only penetrates stuck bolts but actually wicks into threads. It leaves a good lubricant on the metal which seems to stay there. Used it on a stuck slide out on a camper and wow, it really works. It is totally a petroleum product. I also use three-in-one engine starter with a top end lub of three in one oil in it. works great for small engines. My opinion.

    Hey Mr Jim, Just want to second what John H and Preacher Pike said. You may have seen a few videos of my little Nauga strip. Just in case: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Szp1waiP4a0 That little strip has taught me a lot about flying my Kolb that I would have never learned otherwise. One of my challenges was to try to land as short as possible. On-going challenge with John H. I was making full-flap, power off, super steep approaches. Like John H said, realized I was loosing elevator authority in the rather abrupt flare. Kinda like a bird landing on a wire and missing the wire. Sometimes results were amazingly short landing rolls. If everything not just perfect in a span of a few seconds, spent a little time wandering up and down. Time you don't have as the energy bleeds off so very quickly. What Preacher Pike is referring to. For me, I'm getting the best results (shortest landing) with full flaps and just a hint of power for elevator authority in the middle of the flare. Got to be careful when no power available and squeezing it in a tight spot. Been there, done that, bent the plane! What the temp there? Heat index 105 here today. I may come visit. -------- 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. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=300689#300689

    Greg, A lot of us on the list come from GA background,and I believe most of us would agree that our experience in heavier aircraft did not prepare us ad equately for the performance of high drag,low inertia, light sport aircraf t.The list is a good source of info.

I rarely use full flaps but they are really nice if you need to lose altitude. Full flaps produce so much drag that they increase the dece leration of the plane on round out so much that you can easily end up below stall speed while still airborne.

    Subject: Re: RE: flap info for MK lll needed
    John, That sounds like a lot of fun, I am looking forward to learning in my firestar, that is if I ever get it to an airport. Hopefully I won't mess up to bad! Greg ----- Original Message ----- From: John Hauck To: kolb-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 10:44 PM Subject: Re: Kolb-List: RE: flap info for MK lll needed Greg: That is what I said. Your steep, full flap 172 approach is more like a normal mkIII approach, clean. My favorite landing at Lakeland, with passenger, was start the approach at 300 feet AGL, over the threshold, 40 mph, with full flaps, push the nose over to 60 mph or a little less, nudge of a flare, and touch down turn off in front of the tower landing to the east. With a 10 to 15 mph headwind, it was near vertical. Easy to get 2,000 fpm rate of decent and 40 mph full flaps. This is a tremendous safety factor, giving the proficient mkIII pilot the ability to get into tiny forced landing area at slow speeds and very short ground roll. john h mkIII ----- Original Message ----- From: Greg To: kolb-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 8:06 PM Subject: Re: Kolb-List: RE: flap info for MK lll needed I have to say that I am a GA pilot and I do know what flying is all about, I haven't got to fly in my Kolb yet, but I have made quite a few steep approaches with full flaps in a 172.

    John, The heavy bird that I refer to is just a 172, when I can afford it, I have a IFR rating and about 250 hrs. I am the commander of my local Civil Air Patrol Squadron and we are the custodial unit of a 172P. A nice plane for about $70.00 for 1.5 hrs.

    Subject: Re: RE: flap info for MK lll needed
    Greg: Curious when you mentioned heavy aircraft experience which is 300,000 lbs max gross takeoff weight and above. A 172 hardly qualifies as heavy. I am strictly a VFR single engine land pilot. I fly for pleasure and to get me to wonderful places to visit and spend time with other like minded Kolb people. I got to be an Army Rotary Wing Aviator late in my Army career. Most of my aviation experience has been accumulated in the last 26 years of building and flying Homer Kolb's wonderful little airplanes, after retirement. Looking back, it has been a wonderful experience, meeting and making life long friends with many people all over the US, Canada, Alaska, and other parts of the world. Never was interested in gyrocopters. john h mkIII ----- Original Message ----- From: Greg To: kolb-list@matronics.com Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2010 8:59 PM Subject: Re: Kolb-List: RE: flap info for MK lll needed John, The heavy bird that I refer to is just a 172, when I can afford it, I have a IFR rating and about 250 hrs.
