Figured I would share my latest video. Went flying down the river last night.
It was hot down low but it is more fun closer to the ground.

Travis B/Kolbers:
Particularly enjoyed the landing with shadow.
Looks like the highest terrain in your AO is the river bank or the bridge.

I liked the shadow landing too, that is the only reason I put it in there. Did
not realize it until I watched the video. That is the lowest I have flown down
a river since 11/2011 Nauga trip.
Unfortunately it is pretty flat down here in Louisiana.

Kolber's
I have bad news for my FS-2. Yesterday night a microburst hit my trailer at 75
MPH and toppled the entire thing!
Salt lake city airport called me today and informed me of the incident. I went
to the airport and was shocked to see the trailer upside down and my entire right
wing is crushed. The propeller broken, the cockpit broken, landing wheel bent
and the aileron bent. The airports authority said that it cannot cover any
damages!
I have arranged for a forklift to pick the trailer up tomorrow and then assess
the damage....My beautiful bird is totally injured....I will post my incident
with pictures on the list...
Please strap your kolb trailer wherever it is so that it does cause damage to your
kolb the way it happened to mine!

Thanks John. It was unfortunate and never expected something like this to happen.
The trailer was very well supported at 6 points on the frame and on to mother
earth!
But who can stop a microburst!
I will not be coming to the flyin as there is no fun flying a Cessna there...Its
a place for kolbs!
Mahesh
