Subject: | No "Black Friday" For List Fund Raiser... |
Dear Listers,
Curiously, even though the number of List subscriptions are significantly up this
year, support during this year's Fund Raiser is still substantially behind
last year. There are only a couple more days left in November and the end of
the Fund Raiser is quickly approaching.
I have always preferred a non-commercial List experience as many, many members
have also expressed that they do as well. However, if the yearly fund raiser
cannot generate sufficient funds to keep the bills paid, other sources of income
might be required including some sort of advertising. Please don't let that
happen! Your personal Contribution of $20 or $30 goes a long ways to keeping
the operation a float.
Please make sure your name is on this year's List of Contributors published in
December.

Frank=2C
"dshepherd" is Dallas Shepherd. He's from Norfolk=2C Arkansas. He and I
exchanged
a few emails about 3 years ago when I was looking to move to either norther
n Arkansas=2C
or southern Missouri. IIRC=2C he has a Firestar=2C and flies it from his o
wn grass strip.
What is weird=2C weird weird=2C is that EVERYONE of his emails...old=2C n
ew etc=2C is BLANK.
All of 'em!!! I've never seen that before!! For some unknown reason=2C AL
L of his emails
are blank pages=2C even those from 2007! ???? I wonder how that hap
pens.
Dallas=2C if you can get this=2C maybe try a different server=2C or somet
hing.
Frank=2C Dallas undoubtedly sent the group an email recommending the nort
hern area of
Arkansas. I did check it out. It's very pretty=2C lots of lakes and trees
=2C etc. I tried
reading some of Dallas' old emails to see if he mentioned any other Kolb ow
ners
in the area=2C but like I said.......they all were blank.
Hope this helps clear up some of the confusion about his blank emails.

Subject: | Just when I thought it was winter |
I keep telling myself that this is the last good day and I'll put the Mk III
up for the winter so I can get started on the work I want to do. Then
another day like today comes along that's just irresistible and well, what
the heck, it's only a little gas and two stroke oil. Almost an hour of Kolb
therapy going around the patch, even a trip down to Oxford for one landing
on the new asphalt. Okay, I'm ready for winter.

Hi Folks:
First flight today. Well, first flight since the first of May 2010, for my
MKIII and me. All went well. I haven't forgotten how to aviate, neither
has Miss P'fer. I got 1.2 hours today. Miss P'fer has 3,010.9 hours on her
airframe and 441.4 hours on her 912ULS. The airplane flew well, despite all
the barn dust, bird and bug crap, and dirt dauber nests. Got about a half
teaspoon of water out of the fuel tank before the first flight. Both carb
float bowls were dry with evidence that there had been a little moisture in
each of them. Engine fired right up and ran like a top.
While she was sitting for so long, she had two Titan exhaust springs break.
First time I have had exhaust springs break when the engine was not running.
Must say it was good to get back into the air again. I am looking forward
to making some long flights this year. The only one I got last year was a
flight down to Sun and Fun in Lakeland, Florida.
I had my doubts if I was going to be able to make the flight to Monument
Valley next year, but after today's flight, I think it is doable.
Reckon she will really fly good if I get a warm spell so I can wash her.
Maybe tomorrow.

Thanks, Chris/Gang:
I'm still recovering, but it is definitely getting better each day.
Was happy the 912ULS performed so well after nearly 7 months down time. It
was just as though she had been flown regularly.
I was also surprised I had no more moisture in the fuel tank, which was at
about 5 gal, or 20% capacity. The fuel was a mixture of 87 octane mogas
w/ethanol and 100LL, plus Marvel Mystery Oil. I have no idea what the ratio
of the two fuels was, but probably more 87 than 100.
A good bath and the bird will be as good as new.
