    I have to admit that I have considered just taking 5 minutes of flight and leaving the roar of the engine as it is, just to see if that would help the hearing impaired, and to see who would complain. :-) I am just as pleased that I have been able to resist that impulse- so far. The down side to doing two videos is that while I have a 10 mbs of down load, I only have 1 mbs of upload (DSL in the least populated county in the state.) This last video took a bit more than 2 hours to upload. Plus the damn things are pretty large files. The last I checked I have 104 videos on Vimeo, and on my computer. Its easier to listen to Pat bitch. :-) Larry On Sat, May 23, 2015 at 1:49 AM, George Bearden <gab16@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > > > Keep doing what you are doing. > > So, what is the down-side to giving two versions? > > -- *If you forward this email, or any part of it, please remove my email address before sending.*

    If Patrick wasn't bitching, Patrick would not be breathing. He is just like a Army Private. If he ain't bitching, he ain't happy. Love you Patrick. Glad John Williamson and I got to spend time with you and Wendy at Monument Valley some years ago. Larry, make the videos just like you like them. After all, they are yours. You do the work. We watch and enjoy them. To all the Veterans on the Kolb List I wish you all a very happy Memorial Day. Remember those that gave their all so that we can enjoy the freedom we enjoy in America. Nowhere else on earth can people build and fly their own airplanes with the freedom we can. Never forget that. Loading the 5th wheel to head NW to the Rock House, then North to Alaska. Been 18 years since I made a road trip up there and 11 years since I flew. Hope to see some of our Kolbers along the way. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Larry Cottrell Sent: Saturday, May 23, 2015 8:52 AM Subject: Re: Kolb-List: commentary or not?

    I never post here, just read as I don't have a Kolb and have very little hope of getting one. I used to think I would be able to pull it off but there have been some set backs both financial and health. I met with Frank Goodnight once, he is not that far from me, to get to fly in a Kolb but there was a problem and we didn't get to fly it, I did get to sit in it though, he since has sold it I believe. Still hope someday to get to go up in one. As I don't get to fly I absolutely love it when people post videos and Larry's are some of my favorites. I have no complaints about background music or not, my problem is just not enough of them! Joe Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=442490#442490

    Hi Larry Sorry if I appeared to be bitching. Let me say that A) I loved the video as usual. B) the background music was at about the right level. It was merely that the vocal was distracting like trying to listen to two conversations at the same time. I would rather listen to your commentary.What you were saying was much more interesting. I am always fascinated by your comments about the rains, or lack of, what the grass is doing, the wild horses etc. Interested too in the fact that you can fly so far without seeing anyone. Unfortunately the UK is not like that. Of course it hasn`t been like that here for hundreds of years but the last 50 years has seen towns and villages expanding. All the fields and swimming holes which my gang used to roam over, birds nesting, building dams and so forth are under concrete now. I liked your little aside that you were looking to shoot something for your raptors. Could we some some pictures some time? Keeping hawks is something which has always fascinated me. Unfortunately I have a strong aversion the touch of fur or feather, alive or dead. I just puke, so although I have read a fair amount of stuff about flying hawks and falcons and even flown a a couple of hawks from the wrist (protected by the usual glove) I couldn`t take it up as a sport. When I was flying gliders I have been rescued from landing out a couple of times by joining a hawk or a buzzard in a thermal and scraping away so I view them as flying friends. Cheers, keep the videos coming.

Pat From: Larry Cottrell Sent: Friday, May 22, 2015 2:11 AM To: kolb-list@matronics.com Subject: Kolb-List: Fwd: New video Keeping a similar comment from you in mind when I was adding the sound track to the video, I was again surprised that the sound track was louder in the finished project than the original. The picture quality is cleaner and more vivid than was noticeable than what was showing on my computer screen as well. I personally did not have any problem in hearing the narrative, but then again, I already knew what the narration sounded like and was more interested in the vocals. I am curious if any one else felt that the music was more of a distraction than help. I will try to keep that in mind if I ever do another.

    Pat, I probably should send this back copy, and will send you another that is on the subject of falconry by bcc, but there are a couple of points that I feel need to be touched on. Besides there isn't a whole lot going on with the list any way. Firstly, I am not offended by your comments, I fully understand your frustration, and I take all comments as constructive criticism. I like to make the movies, and I want them to be as good as I can make them. I like music, and find that motor noise is something that has to be lived with when flying, but not when watching. I also admit that I especially liked that song and forced it into that clip only because I like it, not that it fit. Am I sorry, nope! The main reason that I am using Vimeo instead of You tube is that I can make the vids private, and can use music without all the hassle of copyrite problems. Since I am not trying to make money from them, and they are restricted I can use any music I want. It is difficult to find music that will fit however. Next, my reasons for cheering the rain that fills the ponds that nourish the game birds, means that there will be enough of them to hunt WITH my falcon, not for my falcon. My "sport" hunting is with the Falcon , not a gun. Nothing against it. Just too easy. https://vimeo.com/113760833 - password- owyheeflyer Warning- the only flying you will see in this video is not with a Kolb. Delete if necessary, I promise to not do it again.

    Larry, Thanks so much for sharing that wonderful video. I really can't think of a better use for such an aircraft. I noticed you said you had to climb up to 6000' and am curious at what elevation you are starting at? I am seriously considering getting a Kolb this year and our starting elevation is about 5000' in the area of Colorado that I would prefer to fly in. I have a lot of stuff to learn yet in terms of which aircraft model and engine combination might be best. I'll be doing a lot more reading and research before purchasing. I also look forward to more of your posts to see how you are getting along with your new engine. Again, thanks.
