If you want a Kolb 103, the only current one that qualifies is the Firefly. The original Firestar with a 5 rib wing and a 377 qualifies, as does the Ultrastar. Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I think that's all of the 103's. Other people will check in throughout the day, so keep an eye on your e-mail. Bill Sullivan Tarboro, NC - End quote Our modification of an original Firestar into a Firefly (Original Firestar wings, Firefly fuselage) met Part 103 with a 277, now we are using a 377, and have chosen not to go back and weigh it - it would be really close but - who knows? (Don't ask - don't tell?) However, it still has all the original Stits from the 1980's that was painted with automotive paint as a top coat. If we tore all the original fabric off and redid it with Oracote I am sure it would make weight. -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kolb Firefly Part 103 legal Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing.
