My wife hates flying. I have taken my kids, brother and a friend in the back.

Subject: | Original Firestar spring flight |
I flew my 26 year-old Original Firestar for the first time this spring. I forgot
how light it really was since flying the Kolbra all winter. I took a 130 mile
flight around the Minneapolis and St Paul metro during mid day thermals and
got kicked around pretty good. Had I been flying the Kolbra, it would have been
a lot more stable in that rough air!
Wing loading makes a difference ...

Subject: | Latex Pain Forum |
I just got word that I will be presenting a forum at Airventure on painting your
homebuilt with latex paint, Wednesday, at 11:30. I plan to camp with my Titan
Tornado in the ultralight area. If any of you are attending Airventure please
stop by the forum or the camp site and say hi. I hope to be there from Sunday
through Friday, weather permitting.
See you there

Subject: | Re: Microburst topples Kolb Trailer - Injures my Firestar -2 |
Thanks Arty! Hope you are having a good time flying around!
Today I got my trailer up using a forklift. Since it fell on the side, the propeller
ripped into the wing and the airfilters are flat like a pancake!
Both ailerons got bent and I will replace them. One of the ribs has got squished
and because I have so many rips on the wing, I will redo the entirely. The props
took the brunt so two of them broke off. The axle of the trailer also go
bent and I will need to put a new one!
No worries, my Kolb has has given me so sweet memories that I just cant do anything
other than getting it back on its feet!
Last year I flew it all over - Monument valley. Lake Powell, Bryce canyon, Mexican
hat, Goose neck state park and many more......so the journey continues :-))........!
