Kolb Friends -
After reading Bob's post, I reflected on my own flying over the past
year, and concluded that I think I also had a good year of Kolb flying.
But not because I flew a bunch of hours - a metric that so many people I
know use to qualify if they've had a "good" year of flying or not. (One
guy I know complains that he's had a miserable year of flying if he logs
less than fifty hours in any year.)
For me, it's not so much the total number of hours I fly in a year, but
total FLIGHTS.
So far, I've taken nearly thirty flights in my Mark-3 since the
beginning of this year - an excellent year so far for me, even though my
total 2011 flight time totals to only 36 hours. Heck - John Hauck flew
more hours than that in ONE trip to the Rock House. I don't fly many
cross-country trips, but rather, I enjoy lots of local flying. It's
what my life's schedule allows - about three visits to the airstrip per
month, on average.
Like most of us, I always wish I could fly more, but I still believe I
had a good year of Kolb flying! I'm happy I got to launch into the sky
thirty times this year in the Kolb I built in my garage. And I didn't
break anything.
And I also hafta agree with Bob Bean - zero maintenance over the year
helps make it a good year, too!

Very nice videos! There were some pretty gnarly bank angles in that
first video. I envy you guys, that have the skills, to feel safe
doing that at such a low altitude. Nice flying! The older I get the
more conservatively I fly. What`s with that? Lanny FSII

If you mean "Aircam" (which is a twin engined plane), then no, it's
not. It looks like it might be a Maxair Drifter, which shares the same
lineage.
