Kolbers:
I'm getting ready to fly down to Lakeland a week from today. Plan to be
there through Saturday. Looks like I'll be camping in the Kolb display area
again this year. That worked out just fine last year. Saved my poor old
knees by not having to walk back and forth from the camping area to the Kolb
display.
Last year, when I landed at Paradise City, I discovered the UL/Lt Plane
camping area was across the runway from the control tower. That meant you
had to have an "armed" escort to get from your airplane and tent to the
display area. There were no porta potties. No one had a chance to see your
airplane unless they were camping there. Not much forethought went into
this, much like Oshkosh used to do us UL campers. Hopefully, they have
moved the camping area somewhere near the display area so folks can see and
enjoy the aircraft of folks who have flown in. Last year only a handful
showed up to camp with their airplanes.
The Kolb display will be near the main entrance to Paradise City. I'll let
you know which side as soon as I hear from Travis. This is the first time
Kolb has not been in their regular site, front and center.
How many of you all are going to fly or drive to Sun and Fun this year?
This will be my 31st consecutive S&F since my first in March 1984. We have
come a long ways since those days. Where did all the years go?
Ya'll come and see us,

I'll be there Thursday through Sunday, with the MK III built by Steven Green, if the weather cooperates. Otherwise, I'll be driving up from Pompano Beach.

So far it looks like Kolbers attendance at S&F is going to be limited.
Hoping there are others that plan to attend.
My airplane got its annual bath yesterday. Hard to realize how big a Kolb
is until you start washing it.
Last year I pulled the gear box on the 912ULS because of a slight oil leak.
Must not have done a good job because I noticed a slight ooze in the same
location. Pulled the gear box a couple days ago and resealed. Have flown
an hour and 15 minutes. So far so good.
Looking forward to seeing Steven's MKIII again.

Morning Folks:
Heading for the airstrip, then south to Lakeland, this morning. Weather
looks good all the way down, 420 sm. Probably take me 5 + 30 to get there,
unless I can find a good tailwind.
Talked to Travis this morning. The Kolb trailer is in place at Paradise
City.
Hope to see a bunch of you folks this year.
