My new job is pretty intense, Ed, and when I do get time off I head for the hills.  In the evenings I'm beat and read a book or doze till bedtime.  Saving my pennies for a new engine, too, tho' I haven't made final choice yet.       Will you be at MV this year ??                   Lar.               Do not Archive.

Dave, I watched both videos at the mosquito site.  Interesting.

Betcha autorotations in that little bugger will be a real thrill.



I think I would spend a big hunk of time in the hover box before I

got out of ground effect the first time.



Still aroused some old desires though.

That's what I like.  Someone who isn't afraid to stand up for our 

Kolbs.



Way to go.



Of course, I will get eye ball to eye ball with "Skeeter" when we meet 

up at MV next month.

Hi Larry,

 Have you looked at the  MZ301 engine? I kinda like the MZ202 for my FireStar. 

 Check it  out;

 I just received  confirmation I will be working in Waterloo, IA during the MV flying. You  all have fun for me.

 Regards,

 Somehow I have Dave pictured as a little taller than that.  

I agree with you on the way Ellery stood up for the Brand though, good man.

Hey Ellery, why does living on the far side of the country preclude you from making Monument Valley?  I read some where that others have flown there toy planes from sea to shining sea    Take John's advice and get some Wal Mart bags to line your leading edge and you should be just fine!  Selling yur plane???  That you will regret.......   Looking forward to "looking you in the eye" John, I keep a sharp stick in my pocket.

Yeah Ellery, work sucks sometimes.  I wanted to make sun&fun, but no time.  When Will and I flew to Oregon and back, I had taken 30 days vacation to do it, just in case.  Perhaps you could plan for next year, trailer the Kolb, or.....   I plan to do a factory build on the Mosquito sometime in late August, they are located in Florida.  I would sure like to see your projects, and perhaps give you a chance at retribution.
