Plan to fly out to the Rock House, in Oregon, in Sep for our annual Kolb flyin. I'll be celebrating 78 years. I think I can do it and enjoy some up close and personal time with just me and the MKIII on another transcontinental flight. I don't know how many of those I have done in this airplane since I first flew it in 1992.Great news John! Do it! I'll be celebrating 78 as well, and if we don't do it now, when are we goin to do it??..I feel really fortunate to be still doin it at all.... Just take it a bit easier and don't push too hard... Have a great adventure, and treasure every bit of it!I still say you gotta write up some of those adventures, so we can all ride along.Cheers,JG* ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:19:02 PM PST US Subject: Kolb-List: Re: Firefly progress From: "Richard Pike" Great day to be outside working on an airplane with your bud. Replaced the one bent wing strut attachment tang yesterday, today we rolled it out and trial fitted the wings. Mostly pretty good, one alignment problem, tomorrow I can call Bryan at the factory and promise to send him money, and he will invent and send me the part I need to fix it. Drug out the scales, maybe we might just barely be able to make Part 103. Right now it looks too close to call. Anybody got a good Hirth F-33 with redrive and electric start you want to trade for a good 447 with gearbox & prop? Here is what a Firefly looks like when you build it out of 3 separate airplanes: -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Forgiving is tough. Being forgiven is wonderful.
