Hi I am a uk kolb owner. I keep mine at the airfield folded in its trailer
as there is no available hangarage , and unfold /fold every time I fly and
15 mins is about right to unfold on my own and do a thorough pre flight
inspection .I could do it faster but I would rather do it in a leisurely
careful manner and then not be worried Ive missed something . Once you get
used to the routine its not really a big deal. I have friends here who keep
their aircraft rigged in the open with covers on and they can get the covers
off faster than I can rig my plane , but then, I can de rig and be away
before they have all their covers back on and the plane tied down. Sure I
would like to just roll her out of a hanger and fly but that is not
available in my area unless I pay at least three times the airfield fees(
currently flying from a farm at Ince blundell just north of Liverpool uk )
and also would miss the good friends at this microlight ( ultralight for
you ) club . Dont let the folding and unfolding put you of owning a kolb and
make sure you have a good checklist ( I'm sure otheres here could help you
far better than I with a proven checklist ) for your rigging to fly and you
wont go far wrong
