(Larry Cottrell) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 06:33:58 AM PST US From: Del Vinal Subject: Kolb-List: Floats, cage no. Hello all. I have found a set of lightning floats and am looking for the history of them. I think they are made in Fla. They are fiberglass outside, weight is 35lbs each. I recently bought a second Kolb, a firefly. I can't find any number on the top tube end. Is there one? Thanks for any info. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:43:01 AM PST US From: william sullivan Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Floats, cage no.

I think that you are going to find that the only serial numbers on any of the Kolb cages will be the one that you put there. For years I used FSII thinking that the number punched into the back of the upper cage main support was a serial number. I finally realized that it merely told them which plane it was intended for. :-/ Larry On Mon, Jan 16, 2017 at 3:25 PM, Richard Pike wrote: > > Herb G gave me a damaged cage from an early Firefly, it has a serial > number on an aluminum plate riveted to the side of the top tube just > behind the front spar carry through. > > -------- > Richard Pike > Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) > Kingsport, TN 3TN0 > > There are only two kinds of people in the world.
