| Subject: | BRS on FSII - Oil injection pump in the way + bridal ques. |
Hey all,
1) Recently i picked up a BRS for my firestar II and just got to trying to mount
it today. I mounted it as far forward as possible as so it doesnt hit the small
support tubes coming off the main tube its mounted on, had to tilt it slightly
so it doesnt hit the starter....but not the oil injection pump arm cant move
freely. What are people doing for this? I tried to bend the arm in a way that
it would work behind it but not much luck...
What would be needed to remove the injection system all together and just premix?
A block off plate or something?
2) The brs came off of a trike and has 3 bridals and im really not sure which one
to use. There is a 30", 82" and 92" with two heavy clips. Which of these (or
all of them) should i use? How are your rigs setup?
Thanks!!

Dylan:
Mine is mounted all the forward. Does not interfere with any of the small tubes.
Ask BRS about the bridle for your plane.

Ralph,
You've got a very good looking Kolbra there. I've always thought the Kolbra to
be the sharpest-looking profile of all the Kolbs.
I got to fly a couple of hours today myself, and it was nice to catch some air
again. A friend of mine and fellow Kolb driver Robert Laird took a photo of me
flying over his property. I did not know about it until I got home and saw he
had emailed it to me. He must have a powerful telephoto lens because I believe
I was around 900' agl while over his place. My Firestar looks pretty good from
1000' away, not quite so pretty at 5'.

Thanks for the ride Ralph. Pretty day indeed. I liked hearing those cables slap
when you landed.

BRS will send you detailed instructions for mounting your chute; the instru
ctions are make and model-specific. THEN - they urge you to take photos and
send them the pics so they can advise you as to whether it's mounted corre
ctly.

Travis,
I have to give credit to Mark German for such a great job building the Kolbra.
I enjoy flying it along with my Firestar that I built over 24 years ago and still
flying.
