An alternative to extending the panel is to put your switches on the seat frame
or other easy to reach location. My Slingshot has the EIS controls in the joystick
grip, the two mag switches on the left side of seat frame, and the starter
switch and electric elevator trim switch on the right side of the seat frame.

Easy to do with the large Penske truck. Was planning to move my M3X to Fla from
AZ and the Kolb fit just fine in there with room to spare.
Rent the truck move your Kolb and turn the truck in. If you get a trailer as others
suggest it can be used as hanger. If you have a hanger the Penske is a great
way to do it. Be ready for some big fuel bills, its a thirsty diesel.

Folks,
How would a guy transport a Kolb home? I'm considering purchasing a Kolb
from several states away but am stuck on how do I get this thing home?
Any suggestions? Pictures?
Thanks,
Doug

Thanks Lanny, I've been slowly learning how to make a video. It's a new hobby of
mine. After the flying is done for the day, it's fun to share and watch it again
on the big screen. I'm in the process of training my wife to keep the camera
straight ahead and not wander off. She is getting better at it. The HD videos
are the way to go these days. The viewer can see everything in full detail
and get more out of it. As time goes on, I will get better and better at it.
If any of you guys have seen Damien's videos, they are very good. He tells the
story of his trips. I'm trying to follow his example, but I have a long way to
go:

Subject: | Can't reach the Panel... |
Hello Kolbers,
I decided to change out the seat belt in the front of my Kolbra with a
retractable seat belt, so I could reach the panel. All the Cub pilots in
this part of the world have them. I bought mine from the local aircraft
parts store. They are not cheap.around $300, but I figure the freedom of
movement is worth the price. The one I bought is sold by Amsafe of Phoenix.
It is not installed yet so I have no pictures to post.
Enjoy,
