Gross weight, cruise speed, Vne etc? Kolbers: Specs for MKIII Classic's should be the same throughout the build years.

If the rain and nasty hot and humid weather ever clears away, I might get a chance to experiment with the suggestions you all gave. When and if I find the cure I will let the list know the results.

Also what VHF radio? I'd appreciate your answers Thanx Russ K Russ K/Kolbers: Don't know what the best GPS and VHF radio is for a Kolb, but I have flown all over the lower 48, Canada, and Alaska, with an ICOM A6 and a Garmin 196. Both have worked flawlessly in my MKIII. The ICOM A6 is the latest ICOM handheld. The Garmin 196 is an older model, but is still being supported 100%. Don't have any idea how long Garmin will support the 196. I think the length of service of this GPS is indicative of how well it is designed and how well it operates. The 196 has all the Jeppesen data base, plus obstacle warnings. For comparison, the Garmin 296, which was introduced some time after the 196, was discontinued 4 or 5 years ago. john h mkIII Rock House, Oregon ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 11:45:06 AM PST US Subject: Re: Kolb-List: q From: Robert Laird I've used a 196 to fly cross-country many times... it's quite up to the task, but getting long in the tooth.
