Anyone know what the angle of incidence for the wing in straight & level flight? The angle of the fuselage would suffice as well. or even the engine line. My mechanical float sender is no longer reliable & I don't want to pay the price of a new one. -Richard Swiderski Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=489600#489600 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:56:48 PM PST US From: John Fitt Subject: Re: Kolb-List: FS1 Angle of incidence in straight & level flight When doing the weight and balance calculations the angle of the wing is specified. I would expect this angle would be for a cruise attitude, and would be a good reference. My Firestar 2 plans show a 9 deg. angle using the bottom of the wing. Just a guess.

He's not an instr uctor, but he does lots of work on ultralight-type and light sport aircraft and probably knows who might be giving instruction in the Bend/Prineville/ Redmond area. His contact info is: joe@lsaaviationsrvc.com=C2- 541.892.76 37=C2- www.lsaaviationsrvc.com If you can get someone to ferry your Kolb down to Cave Junction (Illinois V alley Airport) one of the best instructors around is Wolf Emonds. He has a full-time flight training school. What's even better - he has a lodge pract ically next to the airport that he lets students stay in. Contact him @ cap taindrakesfaa@gmail.com=C2-=C2- 541.415.0600=C2-=C2- captaindrakesf aa.com=C2-=C2- If you decide to go this route, you might want to contac t Dave Richards at Eagle's Nest Airport (OR65) in Eagle Creek, Oregon who d oes a lot of ferrying of Light Sport aircraft and definitely knows how to f ly taildraggers. He's usually eager to ferry.=C2- Reach him @ 503.407.853 1 If you want taildragger instruction in a Cub, contact Steve Huggins, who is an instructor and who also lives @ Eagle's Nest. Reach him @ drhuggins1@ao l.com or 503.939.3375.=C2- He might be willing to train you in your own K olb.

I live in Bend Oregon and am looking for some tailwheel instruction. Traini ng in my plane would be great however it only has brakes on the PIC side. I can travel if need be and my preference is to train in a small, light, an d similar airplane. Any contact information or suggested sources would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration.
