I never post here, just read as I don't have a Kolb and have very little hope of getting one. I used to think I would be able to pull it off but there have been some set backs both financial and healt ...

Want to say thanks to Rex who has offered to show me his Kolb, hope to make it there to see his, and to Frank who I did meet with, I don't know if I will ever see a nicer one than his. Very impressive ...

I live in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, basically Tulsa. I would like to see a Kolb in person. I am building our final house outside of Locust Grove, Oklahoma and am there most days which is close to the Ar ...

She is pretty Paul, how long have you been at it? It must feel good to be at this stage.

Scott, Ed, and Malcolmb,
I really appreciate you information on this older plane.
I think my questions aren't very interesting to many on this site. I understand that, they have much more interes ...

I am just wondering if the twinstar is a good solid plane that flys well and just an older versiion of the Mark lll. Or is the Mark lll just so much better that one shouldn't even consider the older ...

Would you say a Twinstar is close to a Mark III? Is it close, just not as wide? Does it perform about the same?

I appreciate all the info. I guess it is not hard on them to fold and unfold the wings over and over?
Do you consider the Kolb one of the safer planes?

Could someone tell me what the actual time it takes to unfold the wings. I know sometimes what you read is what it takes with a perfect situation. If you fly with a trailer I am wondering how long o ...

Bob,
Thanks, that is the type of thing I would like to hear. I really don't know the difference in all the planes. I think the folding wings has to be a huge plus. My understanding is that they a ...

From what I've been able to gather here in Tulsa this is not as popular a sport as it was ten years ago. Maybe not everywhere, but here that is what it seems. People in the club I've joined, the onl ...

I am in the Tulsa area and am having trouble finding someone too. I went to the EAA site and there were two in my area listed, but after contacting neither is still doing it.

I appreciate the kindness I've been shown, and I agree, I like newcomer better than newbie too.
I am not really looking into hanggliding anymore, I may not have been clear on that. I also after so ...

Hello,
I've been reading here for a couple of weeks. Brand new to flying. Barely started hang gliding in 1980 and the new wife got pregnant, maybe I had a little something to do with that, but she ...
