Hi,
If you are referring to the bow which appears under the nose of some
Kolbs,forget it. In theory it stops the plane standing on its nose. In
practice, if you have got things wrong the nose will be yawing anyway and
the bow will be laid flat. Ask me how I know.
Just ensure that the stick is RIGHT BACK when you taxi, and open the
throttle gently.
Good luck
Pat

I was not refering to the horizontal grounding bar but the verticle tube in
the foreground. is this to protect the front in case of a noseover?

Hi,
re the `D-Day stripes on the wing. Put there as you probably know so that
the ack ack gunners just fired at anything without them.
My family ran a hardware and paint store during the war and just before
D-Day a lorry from the local airfield arrived and requisitioned all the
black and white paint we had in stock to paint the aircraft.
A couple of months ago at a meeting of ex glider and para`s I met the man
who signed the requisition more than 60 years ago. Long arm of coincidence.
Pat

So... Maybe I need to stop at Northern Tool and pick up one of the big casters
with a 4 inch inflatable tire? OK I'll try easy on the throttle when I get this
thing back together.
