I'm the new owner of an incomplete quick build kit from 96. I'm hoping to learn alot from you guys and hopefully contribute as well. I'm a previous (don't hate me) Challenger 2 CWS builder/flyer. This Kolb kit was actually the Demo at oshkosh....the original buyer purchased it from the Kolb booth in 96. When I bought it....the kit was essentially untouched, but is missing some things like the hydraulic brakes master cylinders, cables, push pull tubes, flap and aileron hinges, etc. The tail feathers were covered but unprotected, so I plan on stripping and recovering everything. Here's a pic from the trailer ride home!

Your latest video had perfect sound levels. Another good thing about your narration is that those of us who have never met you in person now know what you sound like. With Kolbers from so many different places, with so many different accents, it adds another dimension worth having. -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY (9G0) Kolb Slingshot SS-021 no engine FOR SALE Diamond Katana DA20-A1 Rotax 912 F3 Don't worry about old age... it doesn't last very long. - Anonymous Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=396580#396580 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 08:11:49 AM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Larry's video From: Mike Hale Very nice indeed I hope to make the next gathering at your place Larry.

I am offering a price as high as I have seen advertised, so I feel this is a fair offer. Hurry, because I plan to buy one as soon as I find the right one. If your plane is not quite what I say I want, certainly feel free to call or email and suggest a lower price and tell me what you have. I wanted to put a ballpark price to let you know I am not trying to lowball you. I would consider other 4-stroke engines, but no 2-strokes. I will pay $25,000 cash for a really nice Mark III Extra with Rotax 912ULS, full enclosure, low time, good condition, dual controls, all logbooks, good damage history. Or $20,000 for a nice Mark III Classic with 912, full enclosure, in good condition and all logbooks and good damage history. Not necessary, but I have an Advanced Aviation Carrera 140 (N928RA) ELSA that I would offer in partial trade (worth $7,500 - flew 60 hours last year, about 800 hours AF, 11 hours engine) - 19 gallons fuel, Rotax 503DCDI, King transponder, Icom A4, VSI, ASI, CHT, EGT, tach, logbooks. I want to upgrade to a 2-seat, 4-stroke and I like the Mark III. Call or email with details and N-number.

If you examine how they are meant to work you find that you have to do a lot of shimming to keep the fixed pad next to the disc or something has to bend when the brakes are applied. Two, be sure to provide yourself with a large access hole in the nose cone to do maintenance on the brakes and instruments. Three, make the instrument panel removable. Four, put the mag switches, the fuel boost pump, and the start switch in an overhead panel so you can reach them in flight without having to undo your shoulder straps. Five, If you haven't wired an airplane before, or even if you have, for that matter, join the Aeroelectric forum here on Matronics and get Bob's manual. Using his architecture on both mine and Ken Holle's Mk III made the job easy. Bob has ready made wiring schematics for both the two stroke Rotax and the 912. When you make a mistake you'll have someone to help you get back on track if you need it. Five, when you get to the flying part make your first landings on the mains, i.e. wheel it on, then gradually slow down until you can wheel it on three. If you try to do a full stall landing you'll land on the tail wheel and have to spend an evening with Mr. Hydraulic Press straightening your main gear legs. That's about all I can think of right off.
