Hump at about 125" on north end, less on left side. I don't go up to Argyle too much. It's right about my round trip limit. I'd feel better if I could get some fuel up there. I'll add it to my GPS. I think I found it on Google maps but there are so many fields up there I should get GPS coordinates from you. Where did you get your Firefly? There was a guy up around Argyle named Bruce and I test flew his Firefly for him 6 or 7 years ago. I don't know if he is still flying it. I'll try to get up to Argyle this year. It would be nice to see some other Kolbs around. -------- Scott Olendorf Original Firestar, Rotax 447, Powerfin prop Schenectady, NY http://sites.google.com/site/kolbfirestar/ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=396748#396748

    Yes. Still at 4B1 Scott Olendorf Scott O/Kolbers: Flew right by Duanesburg, NY, in 1989, the second year I flew my Firestar to the NE. Didn't know it was there at the time. I cut across the north side of Albany Airport west to catch the Interstate and south to Bert Howland's in Maryland, NY. That is a beautiful area to fly. Lots of little grass strips stuck here and there. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama

    My son lives in Rotterdamn so I hope to make a "few" trips to Duanseburg this summer, I have never been able to find the airstrip in Maryland,NY? Kolbers: Bert Howland's airstrip may not exist anymore. Bert died in late 1994 or 95. He had moved to Debary, FL, a few years before he passed away. Bert's airstrip was between on the strip of land between the river and State Highway 7, downtown Maryland. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama
