I agree with John......on landing a Kolb.....I have lots of runway and I most of the time use a bit of power and wheel land the firestar.. helps a lazy old pilot to land smooth....we are creatures of habit and those habit's are hard to change....yes a Kolb is light in weight and slows up fast....a person can carry a bit more speed and no power and do the same type of landing as I do with a bit of power....that you have to do with a engine out.....I find it difficult to make good landings doing a full stall 3 point landing...I seem to be to high or to low and only once in awhile do I get it right...yes it boils down to fly the airplane....and if you do that the Kolb is a fun airplane and in a price range that is hard to beat....I am going out right now and gas up.....blue skys and safe flying jswan [quote][b]
