OK....
So are we just going to trade comments? I sent a E-Mail but only got a form
letter response with a link to their web site.
Does anyone have a E-Mail address to someone that can/will fix it? How
about our politicians?
I'm not going to send my "re-registration" in till I get my 2nd warning
letter 60 days before it expires. Yes I know I will risk their wrath.
Also I just renewed my annual state aircraft registration in Michigan.
Seems like they could talk to the states. They wouldn't get away with this
with automobiles there would be too many.

A paper malfunction does not cause an airplane to fall out of the sky.
Best laugh of the day:
Or they [FAA] could surprise us and recognize their error, and correct it ,
I doubt this was a conspiracy; as has been said incompetence is a much simpler
explanation.
Last quote bout sums it up. Thanks, Thom.

Gents,
I read this list because I built a Firestar I many years ago and still love
Kolbs even though I don't have one at present. I do have another plane an
d this string on the re-registration bugs me as much as you. So I asked on
e of my good friends at the FAA to get the name of the individual responsib
le for this process (the "stuckee"). His name is John Bent at the FAA regi
stry. Email is john.g.bent@faa.gov and his phone number is 405-954-4331.
He is just one guy in the bureaucracy so don't get mad, just express your f
rustration and hopefully he can fix the system.

| Subject: | MK3X Fiberglass wing tips |
Was watching some you tube videos,and saw an MK3 that had fiberglass wing tips.
Are these most likely custom built by the builder or is there a source for these?

Scott,
Kolb Aircraft 'may' offer fiberglass tips for the Xtra. They did
install a set on their factory demo Xtra once.
As far as making droop tips a common factory option, you'd have to ask
them. Call Travis @ Kolb Aircraft.
"Some" guys have built their own droop tips. Here is a picture of
mine that I made for my plane last year.

| Subject: | Re: Nose Skid Strip |
Do a search for "nose skid". I posted some pictures of my design some time ago.
Some people liked it; others raised a fuss.
I got an email from TNK at the time & they were complimentary and had no problems
with it.
I use it as a front pull handle, tie down point if required, and I also attached
my pitot and static tubes to it.

Dennis, You can make your own from FAR 43 Appendix D. Some specifics like
acceptable compression and the means of measuring it will depend upon your
aircraft's engine type, but all the requirements for a conditional
inspection are there.
