Hi Gang:



As the end of my ground trip draws near, I find my self at Horizon Airport, 

just east of El Paso, Tx, homebase of friends Will Uribe and Dave Raines.



Dave invited me to his hanger to inspect his new Kolb rotorcraft.  A couple 

photos are attached.  I'm the good looking one with the hat.

John- More info, please.  Nice looking rotor craft, but I hadn't seen anything about Kolb making or marketing one.

John is having fun.



How's the rebuild going?

How can you call anyone ugly with that big a smile on his face?

Sitting under a rotor does that to rotor-heads -- Kolb or not

Sir... They are gettin' "above their raisin'" ...   a mortal sin in the 

South...



..clearly...if'n any Kolb air-machine parts above a man's head are in 

motion, it's time

for either prayer, or a good parachute...

..not sure...but I think Homer scratched that on a Pennsylvania rock 

someplace...

Hi,

why do inventors go to all the trouble of building a streamlined, polished, 

painted machine before there is any proof that it will work? Hours of panel 

beating  etc,panel design and so on.  Did they never see the original 

`flying bedstead` lash up which we used as a proof of concept before we came 

up with a fully furnished `Harrier`



Get it flying first, then make it pretty.
