Subject: | Re: Kolb Sighting in Florida...well, kinda |
I was wondering that myself...and did figure it out the location.
Although the location is identified in the show as Homestead General south west
of Miami, it obviously isn't. The Wiki page for the show mentions nearly all
filming is done in CA, not FL. The yellow trainer in the background is a Breese
2 and has the word SCHOOL under the right wing. A bit of searching turned up
N18VE.

The airport-data page mentions the owner is a member of VCUAS(Ventura County Ultralight
Aircraft Society) which is based at the Camarillo airport. They have
a separate ultralight area at the south west corner of the airport. Looks like
the kolb was positioned just west of the first T-hangar.

Thanks for the information.
I landed at Homestead for fuel in 1994. Soon after the hurricane that
devastated the airport. Took on 20 gallons of fuel. FOB was operating out
of an old mobile home and pumping fuel out of an old rusty fuel truck. When
I told the FOB where I had flown the past 40 days, he refused to take my
money. His airport had been blown away. There was nothing left, yet he
wanted to help me complete my flight. I met a lot of people like him on
that flight in Alaska, Canada, and CONUS.

Subject: | Kolb Twinstar Mark II weight and balance |
Gentlemen,
I have acquired a Kolb Twinstar Mark II built in 1989. =C2-However, it is
missing one important piece of information: the weight & balance and gross
weight document. =C2-I intend to weigh the plane and do a complete weigh
t and balance workup, but it would really be nice to have some examples to
work from. =C2-
Could some of you Twinstar Mk II pilots send me images of your W&B or post
them here?
Thanks,
Wayne S.
