| Subject: | Flying with the balloons |
Today is the last day of Kingsport's annual Fun Fest, and today they have 2 hare
n' hound hot air balloon races, one in the morning and one in the evening. Decided
to go this morning as the temps are suppose to get close to 100 this evening.
Here are some pics and links to some videos I took.

- Richard- I noticed on the second picture down, that the Stits on the bo
ttom of your wing seems to be bulged down.- Almost like it is an inflated
air bed, pressure on the inside.- Is this typical, or just a trick of th
e light and the camera?- Nice pics, and a good view of the ground fog.-
Also, is that a peel and stick patch on the bottom?

It does look that way, but looking at it in flight it is pushed up. And that's
not a patch, it's the flat Lexan cover for the landing light.
Thanks,

Dennis,
I'm flying a KXP (just bought it) out of Camden, Tn.. What's the chance we
can get together? I'd love to see your plane and talk with another Kolb
owner.

| Subject: | Owyhee Canyon East of Rome |
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgITXXXY8Vk
I flew East of Rome and down the Owyhee River for two reasons. One I
wanted another flight with the new camera, and there is a spot there
that I would like to be able to go in with my quad to a deep fishing
hole. The walk is a killer coming back because it is about a 1000 foot
climb, and it is generally 95 or more degrees when you come out. If you
are loaded with fish, it gets a little too much to do comfortably. The
ground is too rough however, and there is no trail down there. The BLM
frowns on off road travel, and I cannot blame them, so its on foot or
not at all. Another was a comment that I should ask my computer to do
fades between scenes. I tried yesterday and felt that I had it down, so
I wanted to put it into practice.
Somehow I am getting some serious wobbling at full throttle. I will have
to check into that later. In the scene after I make my last pass at one
of the playa's, (I had a 10 mph tail wind, so I opted out on the touch
and go) I join a Red-tailed Hawk in a thermal. It is a short clip and
you have to be watching close, but he paid no attention to me other than
to look at me over his shoulder.

I should have said wobbling in the camera, not the plane.

Richard,
Looks good.
How much longer is the TE tube and aileron than stock Kolb plans call for?
Is LE the stock length?
I'll be very interested in hearing your flight report when you are all finished.

Can't wait to see the new bird, and to see it fly.
Congratulations, and fly safe.
