    Dear Listers, There are just a few days left for this year's List Fund Raiser. If you've been putting off making a Contribution until the last minute, well, this is it! The last minute, that is... :-) There are some GREAT new gift selections to choose from this year. I personally want at least three of them! There's probably something you can't live without too! And, best of all it supports your Lists! Please remember that there isn't any sort of commercial advertising on the Lists and the *only* means of keeping these Lists running is through your Contributions during this Fund Raiser. Let's make this a "Black Friday" for the Lists! Please make a Contribution today! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 Thank you!

    Herb - Looks like I'm going to be selling my Firestar. I own it jointly with a friend and he's getting out of flying. I've got another airplane so this one will be surplus. I haven't listed it anywhere yet. Here's a video that shows a bit of what it looks like. https://youtu.be/toCBMcCzrzg I planned to do a detailed video of the bird when I listed it. It's a 1985 Firestar with a Rotax 377 and a 64" Warp Drive Prop. The fabric is original but it's well done. I punch tested it just last week and it passed. It has a BRS that still has a couple of years before it expires and a strobe. The panel is basic steam guages. It's got mechanical, heel-operated disc brakes and the original "wheel barrow" wheels. I've owned it for about 5 years. I replaced the spring washers in the gearbox when I bought it. I put a Ducati electronic ignition on it and replaced the pistons and cylinders with good used ones. I've got a lot of spares for it, including a dual carb set up that I never installed and a spare set of pistons and cylinders. It flies regularly and runs very smoothly. It's not the prettiest bird around but it's airworthy and flies nicely. I'll attach a few photos from Barnstormers when I bought the plane back in 2012, but it looks pretty much the same. I replaced the analog tach with a Tiny Tach. I'd like to get $3,500 for it. It's located in Corning, California. Martin B. -------- There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.

    I would buy it...save the 2k delivery fee or more...paid that amount when I bought a Firefly and a Trike from Orange Co..couple of years ago...and I guess 2k was cheap!
