I think all you are in a big misunderstanding. Now I try to explain you, why I asked your help some days before. My KOLB have had a permit of my instructor four years befor, but it is too few for our authority. The hungarien aviation low doesn't know the "ultralight experimental" category. ((becouse, it is an old low - still from the socialist system)) Forthere, tehere is no separetly rul for this category.The experimental planes is managed by the same rule, like a big plane./forinstance Jumbo 747/ The rule is rule!Must keep, but we know it is wrong.The handmade producing is als=C3=B3 very complicate, like other office work. forinstanc an interesting affair.:Peter Bessenyei(he is a hungarian No. 1 pilot) who have made the RED BULL AIR RACE world chanpionship up - and he have won it more times.He obtained a hungarian produced CORVUS type, wonderfool race plane - and now listen!!! The plane is registered in the USA - becouse he could not register here, at home.( You will see him to fly-and I hope to win- this year on the RBAR.) The aviation authority is too difficult and the low is not "up-to-date.It is the estate of the socialist system too. Our contry is a very small one.Here must keep the rules. Maybe,it will be a new up-to-date aviation low in this year, and the problems "fly" away. I want to calm down everybody, I don't want to cheating, to steal,to falsify, to make a new type hungarian kolb, I don't need any new kolb part,and I haven' got a long dark-grey trenchcoat, and so on...................................! And Mike, mustn't close your door, nobady knoks there. I had got a complete plane set and weight and ballance report four years before, from an american kolbers and he didn't mention closed door, and now, there is no other kolb in Hungary. I passed 66 and I want ONLY FLY by my KOLB.And I am very grateful to Mr KOLB, that he gave so good plane for the people. And now I very ask everybody, don't send me a n y t h i n g N E V E R !!!!! So, I thank you very-very much for everything!!!!Your correspondences were very instructive. Finally, You can see the single hungarian kolb and me - without dark view. Excuse me my poor english!! Thank you. Hi for all.

They do their inspection certify it and off he goes flying a Kolb and opening a whole new market. . Everybody is happy there in Hungaria. :-) I can imagine when the next kolb shows up and providing they wonder why both of these have the same model and look different, well by then it has been inspected and certified. G-Robots don't mess with stuff they already certify, the next guy may have to do some contortions but Zoltan will be certified in his now M3 under *its* Hungarian model designation in Hungary. Lol That's the way it works. Zolta say nothing to those G-Robots just give them the paper show them your airplane and keep quite. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:48:41 AM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Kolb Firestar II for sale in Florida.

I have a mk 111 and could let him have a copy of that if it will do. Better for him or his own governing body to contact the Light aircraft association for details of the standards that we operate under maybe ? ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 01:49:24 PM PST US From: "b young" Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Type certificate for KOLB MARK II TWINSTAR So, I thank you very-very much for everything!!!!Your correspondences were very instructive.

We use humor a lot but none of that humor in any way is intended to disparage you, Its just our way of not being too serious or dark. In any event we all know more about your situation and I wish you the best of luck. I for one was not aware from your initial message that you had your craft already registered or the whole story. Thus were the comments. ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 10:30:50 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Kolb/Jabiru carb overflow From: "ces308" Hello all.. Here is an update on the fuel pump delema...last Saturday we eliminated the mechanical pump all together and flew it on just the electric pump at 2- lbs of pressure and flew it for 20 minutes and all was fine...ok..then it was suggested we cut some of the spring off and that would lower the pressure...we did and it did...ran it for about 6 minutes and all was good...I talked to Jim from Jabiru in CA ,told him what we did and he said if it worked to leave it alone,try it,if it works ,fly it....ok...I tested it and it was fine...then I flew it...it was good for just over 6 minutes,then it started flooding out again...it did keep running allbeit not very good and I made a safy landing...when I got to the hangar I placed the pressure guage back on and it went right to 7+ lbs...why?? Here is what I think happened...Saturday we cut off the spring ,started it up and the pressure went to 2-3 lbs...It only ran for a few minutes... Today,after Jim said if it works ,check it and fly it.... I checked it,ran it for 6 minutes and it seemed ok...it got to about 3.2 # and seemed to be steady ... then I flew it for just over 6 minutes and then it started flooding again... What I think is happening is when we cut it off it just took longer for the fuel to build up pressure and once everything was full of gas,the spring was still working and although it wasn't going up as far, when it did push up,it was still pushing at 7# psi...we only shortened the spring...not relieve any tension......do you see what I mean??? does it make any sense??? I hope so...cause I'm going nutts !!!! LOL Frank is sending me his NEW silver spring which is supposed to be 2-3 lbs...if that does not work I will put a regulator on and set it to 2-3 lbs.. Again..Thank you Frank ! chris ambrose M3X/Jabiru A-2200 172.0hrs N327CS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327077#327077 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
