Hey Guys,
I saw my fastest Ground speed today , 91 MPH
I don't have a full encloser yet , but my air speed was 70-75 today
The prop was really getting a hold on the crisp air...
There was a 10-20 mph wind but it wasn't gusting , so it was some good
flying...
Gotta Fly...

PS,
Hey, Guy, Re: VNE
The terminal velocity of a skydiver is about 124 mph (200 kph). Put your
nose down and try to exceed it if you want to wind it up permanently, as
one of our cancer-ridden buddies did in a Challenger, right in front of his
back-country NM hangar.
Who know when the wings will come off a Kolb.

VNE = Velocity, Never-Exceed. You should know this!

Come on, Kinne, it's like past the maximum shutter speed of the camera,
only in this case the aircraft's safe function. Velocity Never Exceed. I
would assume this is a known and published speed for all Kolbs, as it is for
all General Aviation aircraft.

Hey Guys,
Vne for my Firestar is when "airspeed" is 90 mph and above ,
I'm not sure what it is for the "Fly" , "Marks" or "Kolbra"...
Yesterday was also the fastest airspeed (75) that I've reached in my
Firestar , most of the time 70 mph has been the limit for me, a few bumps
and I back off the throttle for 60-65 ...
I brought my Bird home yesterday , gotta fix some things, change some
things and get things cleaned up ( Ralph likes to "EAT" things off my
plane) After I had a chance to Fly it for a while , I have a better idea of
some things I want , and where I want them....
.
Hey Ralph, Like "Fish Scales" ? I'm thinking of putting them on my floor
pans.....Mmmmmm...
Gotta Fly...

Planecrazzy,
Someday I will own a "origional Planecrazzy Air-deco" piece of art. That is one fantastic toosh-coush. You could market them if you would put a gauge or two along the sides.
You bring that plane out here to Ohio and with the fish scale flooring, I put my brunson under it and we will do some cookin!
I wondered, you said the "do not archive" is part of your signature. Does that mean "all of your work" will disapear for future drivers like ourselves? Not to be recorded for posterity, for future generations that will never have the opertunity to meet the real planecrazzy? Would any man dare distroy a Da Vinchi, a Van Gough? I tink not (whops, did I talk like a pirate?)?
Ohio Ralph, Waiting with baited breath for your response!

Hey Ralph ,
When you talked about eating things off my plane ( and floor ), you never said nothin about a FLAME... 
If guys need info from the archives , they need to look at post's from the "Pro's".... not mine .... (I look for John's replies)
