My question is, are our email address available thru the Matronics site? I had a very disturbing email after my comment regarding the covid virus. Email referenced the Matronics Kolb site.

From: "esp3500" Ok, My situation is this. I have been taking flying lessons since last September however this has all been in a flightstar. I Just finished restoring an old twinstar. taxiing is going well, but i know there is a big difference from a tricycle and a tail dragger. does anyone have any videos of take offs and landings in a kolb maybe with some instructions as to what to look for. I have not found anyone near me that does tail dragger training and I dont really want to train in a full sized trail dragger when I am in an ultralight.

I went from a RANS S12-XL (tricycle gear) to a Kolb MkIIIC ... virtually no difference. It's advised on takeoff to work up to the point where you get your taill off the ground as soon as possible, but don't worry about that at first. It will happen organically. And, like any taildragger, ground-handling is different and a cross-wind landing can get you in trouble (unless you have differential braking in your Kolb). -- Robert On Mon, Jun 29, 2020 at 12:38 PM esp3500 wrote: > > Ok, My situation is this.

Good Afternoon esp3500, I built my first UltraStar three decades ago when I lived in Wisconsin. Since I retired from the airlines, I have done a lot of videoing in my FireFly, here in Florida. What part of the country is home for you? On Mon, Jun 29, 2020 at 1:40 PM esp3500 wrote: > > Ok, My situation is this.
