Good Morning Dave,
Thanks for the early on "heads up" response but I am only interested
in a single place and not wanting to spend that much for one,,,
I have no doubt your Mark III is beautiful but it's more than I'm
looking for,,,
Thanks again

Try a fork lift dealer. They work on small diameter stuff. Maybe somebody used

Im try to replace my tires on my Xtra but so far I am
unable to remove them from the Matco split rims. It
seems that the beed sealer is being uncooperative (Im
thinking its really epoxy or perhaps someone has found a
new method to vulcanize rubber to metal). I havent found
any tire shop that will work on that size of wheel.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Never used tire sealer on wheels, but had a couple Armstrong tires that refused
to release from the beads on either the FS or MKIII wheels. The tire beads were
tougher than the light aluminum wheels.
Eventually used a die grinder and cut off wheel to cut the wire bead so I could
cut them off.
Don't know anything about golf carts. Do they use a one piece or a split rim?
I have ATV and SXS one piece wheels and tires mounted and dismounted at regular
tire shops, but they would not touch one of these aluminum split rims. A small
"shade tree" shop somewhere might tackle the job.
I had a flat tire when I landed at Fort Nelson, British Columbia, in 2004. A motorcycle
gang was using a hanger to build bikes. They tackled the job for me,
took me all the way to town to get some patches. Could have never gotten the
job done by myself.
I think aircraft tires come off much easier than the golf cart type tires.

You aren't flying a Kolb?
Try this one: http://alaska.gov/visitorhome.html
Be careful in Anchorage and Fairbanks. Easy to get mugged. Pan
Handlers everywhere. Much safer out in the bush with the beasts and
bears, but you need a Kolb to get there.
Tough keeping this one Kolb related. ;-)

Golf cart wheels are one piece; similar in concept to automotive wheels.
The reason I mentioned them is that they will have a bead breaker usable
on small diameter wheels. Leave the wheel assembled, & let them break
the bead on both sides. I'd assume that once the bead is broken free, he
can handle the rest of the job himself.

Problem with breaking tough beads on UL type aluminum wheels is the tire bead is
tougher than the aluminum wheel. Very easy to ruin a wheel in the process.
The reason I cut the bead with a die grinder was to sacrifice the "off road"
tire before I sacrificed the wheel. I'd have second thoughts about butchering
an aircraft tire.

I have not been able to fly to Alaska like John, still dreaming of that.
I did get a chance to ride the 11,000 miles from Phoenix AZ to Alaska and back.
It is still probably one of the nicest vacations I have ever had.
Like John did, I dry camped most of the way. There are numerous camping grounds
along the Al-Can Hwy that have showers and laundry if you need that.
I prefer to camp with the bears and moose.
I did the trip in late June and it took 20 days.

Usually, the problem when attempting to break he bead, is that the rim
is weaker than the tire bead.
If it was my problem and I had a off road tire on the rim, I'd sacrifice
the tire and cut the wire bead. If not, I'd figure out which cost the
most to replace, aircraft tire or MATCO rim.
Good luck with your tire operation.

Have you thought of using a mini tire change from Harbor Freight?
$42.99.

Mr. Hauck, maybe I can shed more light on the MIII! If you are like me and
scratch your head any more, we wont need a comb. The Builder was Daniel
Bauman, serial No. 16 and registration no N726DB.

Who built this 1992 MKIII? Do you have a serial number for it?
I was at Oshkosh that year, but cannot remember who had the 1992 Grand
Champion Light Plane.
OK. I remember the 503 on a MKIII. It was a red and white color scheme.
The aircraft had not been flown, nor the initial flight test hours flown off
it. It certainly wasn't flown to Oshkosh, and was not qualified to be
judged at Oshkosh, but somehow it was. I may be wrong on this aircraft.
Please let me know.

Yep, that is the one. Was a nice looking MKIII. Must still be like brand new
with so few hours on it.
Mine shows a lot of fair wear and tear, but still flies well. In fact, I have
gotten off my butt and hit the air ways this past Saturday. Got 1.5 hours of
really fun flying although the wind was blowing, I still managed to make it home
without bending anything.

| Subject: | Flaperons on the Slingshot |
I was looking through pictures today, and I noticed photos showing a "flap" handle
in a Slingshot. But looking at the exterios photos I saw that there was only
one control surface behind each wing.
This would mean that the Slingshot, or at least this one, had a flaperon control
mixer.
Was this a standard control setup for the Slingshot, or was this one airplane modified
with flaperons?
Does anyone have and information about this system, and how it operates?
Does anyone knoow whether the flaperons were beneficial and how much they halped
on the fast or slow end of the speed range?

| Subject: | Re: Tire Replacement |

Seems like only yesterday that some one suggested that I glue my tires on
rather than use screws to keep them from slipping at low pressure. I think
I will stick with the screws. I don't have a tire changer, but I do have a
screw gun. :-)
