For those places where it does not seem possible to eliminate it, and all you want is a vent, how about something like this in 1/8 OD inside your plastic tubing instead of a spring? At 18 cents a foot, you have nothing to lose... http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/nylaflow.php?clickkey=8311 -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Would you consider yourself to be a good person? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWcDXT6pH7A Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=454472#454472 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:16:10 PM PST US From: "John Hauck" Subject: RE: Kolb-List: Re: Kinked vent tube If the stock tubing is installed correctly, it normally doesn't crimp, but Nyloflow tubing would certainly keep it from it. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama -----Original Message----- From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Richard Pike Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2016 2:47 PM Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Kinked vent tube --> I have tried to eliminate plastic tubing from my airplane to the extent possible; it is incredibly unreliable.

Should get down there Tuesday or Wednesday. Plan to stay until Saturday, then fly back to Alabama. Will be camping with my MKIII at the Kolb Aircraft Company display in Paradise City. Have been able to do that for the past two years. Sure makes it convenient to wake up and be at work. Who plans to attend? Come by and see me. Meeting old and new friends is what little airplanes is all about. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama - Haven't missed Sun and Fun since my first one in 1984. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:31:57 PM PST US From: "John Hauck" Subject: Kolb-List: Warp Drive Prop For Sale Kolbers: I have a WARP Drive Prop for sale: 71" 3 blade, tapered SS leading edge protection HPL Hub Approximately 500.0 hours. $545.00 If interested contact me back copy at: jhauck@elmore.rr.com john h mkIII Titus, Alabama ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 07:36:51 PM PST US From: "John Hauck" Subject: Kolb-List: FW: Warp Drive Prop For Sale Kolbers: Might help if I include the application of the WARP Drive Prop: 912UL, ULS, 914 Pusher john h mkIII Titus, Alabama From: John Hauck [mailto:jhauck@elmore.rr.com] Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2016 9:32 PM Subject: Warp Drive Prop For Sale Kolbers: I have a WARP Drive Prop for sale: 71" 3 blade, tapered SS leading edge protection HPL Hub Approximately 500.0 hours. $545.00 If interested contact me back copy at: jhauck@elmore.rr.com john h mkIII Titus, Alabama ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 07:42:19 PM PST US From: "John Hauck" Subject: Kolb-List: Installed New WARP Drive Prop Kolbers: Installed a new 68" 3 blade prop today. It has straight blades. More blade area, but probably will not have the twist of the tapered blade. I have it propped for 5,400 rpm static. Have not had a chance to test fly. Plan to test flyin in the morning. Have no idea what it will turn WOT straight and level flight. I went to a 68" prop to see if it will be a little quieter than the 71" with tapered blades. Looks strange having so much clearance between prop tips and tail boom. I have flown with 72" props and 3/4" tip clearance. Those were really noisy, but climbed like crazy. Now days I am willing to give up some performance if I can get "a little peace and quiets". john h mkIII Titus, Alabama ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
