I am not trying to slam the firestar II for sale for 17,900 $$ but is the
frame gold plated and the engine diamond studded
or something? Good luck. Ted
Glad to hear there is a bunch of slingshots out there playing. I love mine.
Just wish the weather would be a little
better. Getting over a herniated spine operation last November and can now
push my plane around. Missed all the
good weather we had over November and December but someday the wind will
stop and we can play again more than
a few minutes. I am glad I am pushing the 912 to 5000 and 5200 rpm. Seems
to like it there. Of course, going
90-95 mph chews up a bit more gas but I am having a ball. I feel the
slingshot with the short wing and heavier weight
is perfect for the 912. It has to be more stable than the firefly. Short
wings and being so light might actually be a handicap.
Anyway. Have fun out there and be safe and oh yeah, good luck on the price
of that firestar. I would like to see some
pics of one that is worth that much. Ted Cowan, Slingshot, 912 zoom zoom

Subject: | 2013 Kolb Homecoming |
Good Morning, Kolbers:
We have a tentative date for the 2013 Kolb Homecoming:
17 -19 May 2013
Friday, 17 May, is "early bird day".
Saturday, 18 May, is the flyin.
Sunday, 19 May, is departure.
We chose this particular weekend because it is the weekend between Mother's
Day and Memorial Day. It is also the same weekend we held the Kolb
Unplanned/Unorganized Monument Valley Flyin in previous years.
Hopefully, the weather in May will be better than it turned out to be in
November.
Will let you all know as soon as we firm up these dates, which should be in
the next day or two.
We had a great time at last year's Homecoming. Hopefully, this year's will
be even better.
Tell all your friends. Everyone is welcome whether you fly a Kolb or not.
We have many different airplanes fly in.

Very interesting, especialy the Rpm . I have been running my 912uls
at 4800 RPM and taking off at 5000 didn't know 5500 and 5800 was better for the
engine . Thanks John.

In my opinion, lugging a two or four stroke is not good for them. They are
designed to turn high rpm.
I have always used 5,000 rpm for normal cruise. If I get in a hurry, I fly
5,200 and 5,400 rpm. Whatever is comfortable for me and the airplane.
I flew 5,400 rpm from Alabama to OSH and back in 1994, with my 912UL. That
was right after I got home from flying 232 hours on the first Alaska flight.
Only difference was fuel burn and a little more cruise speed.

That would be great.
Time to get out of all that ice and snow.
We are all looking forward to another get together to celebrate Kolb
Aircraft and the man behind it all, our friend Homer Kolb.
Don't forget to look at the photo, attached.

I don't know about the 582. I found this one by accident.
A search of the ROAN site should turn up some results.
