Subject: UltraStar Project for Sale.
Contact: Mr. Chuck Moon, Wimauma, FL. CELL: 813-390 1222
Price: $1,500
This is a sale by third party following the death of the acft owner before he could complete the repair/restoration.
Background: Ultrastar, in garage storage since approximately 2002. Suffered right wing damage when
wooden prop disintegrated at cruise and the prop fragment passed upward through outer portion
of wing. Engine was shut down and acft was successfully landed without further damage.
Structural damage appears confined to aft portion of one rib, but fabric removal around damage
will be required to verify. Airframe appears straight, with no observable, significant corrosion problems evident.
Condition of fabric on remainder of airplane is unknown, but looks OK.

Engine: Cuyuna (Carburetor is missing). Propeller requires replacement.
Seasoned Kolbers on this list may remember The late Skip Staub, CDR, US. Navy, F8 Crusader driver extraordinaire
and Kolb enthusiast. This Ultrastar was Skip’s and he was flying it over Palmetto, FL when the prop failed.
