I have been lurking on the list for about a week now and I have to say that
most of you really have the Christmas Spirit. By that I mean, you all sound
as though you have been a little too close to the egg nog (southern style).
Babble is a good name for it. Anyway, I have a challenger in my hanger that
I fly regularly for the owner and have flown a few others, challengers, mini
max, rans 4, weight shift and stick Eagles, etc, and I have to say the Kolb
planes are the most delightful to fly. They seem to have the most defined
characteristics, the most controllable and dependable. I refer to
Challengers as 1956 Buicks on a Sunday afternoon, Kolbs are MGs for the
spirited. I take most people on rides in the Challenger. I fly one but I
dont want to own one. I enjoy flying my "Greezed Lightnin" Slingshot with a
912. Thats my kind of flying! Ted Cowan, Alabama. If you are interested
in some Kolb parts visit my web site at

archive.

Ted, my cage was worse than that when I got it. (cheap)
I would suggest to anyone who repairs this kind of damage that they
increase
the angle of the leg sockets so they can use the stock aluminum legs
and gain some altitude in stance . I didn't but then I was a Kolb
novice.
You may also have to weld up new axle fittings too unless you like
that new camber.
