I
Think so....The guy lived in the rural Somerset Ky area... It is still
shown on the New Kolb site..
I just noticed that the ad has been pulled...I was going to call this
morning.!  Herb
If so, this SS was owned by a friend of mine here in the Wetumpka, Alabama,
area. This is the SS with rib stitched wings that decided to release from
inboard out. Took us a few days to discover what the problem was. Had a
terrible noise and vibration in flight. Had to do some close in flight
inspections to finally see the fabric ballooning on the right inboard wing.

If this is the same one I called about it yesterday and the guy called me back and said he had a guy coming Saturday to look at it he was pretty sure the guy was going to take it..... said it had a little over 500 on the airframe and had 130 i think on a new blue head 582..... They guy was from kokomo IN.....heck of a nice guy..... We talked over 30 minutes on the phone said he had been trying to sell for for sometime and just kept reducing the price.....
He said he went to Oshkosh and ordered the kit in 94 and it was the 6th slingshot off the line..
He said he spent more time flying the luscombe that he was partners on that he did with the kolb so he said it had set for over a year and he said he just wanted it gone... he said that a kid that lived 5 miles from him was coming saturday and he was pretty sure he was going to take it.. He is from an aviation family and was a rotax service guy. I told him I would buy if it if he decided he didn't want it.. He said he had a couple others that were interested also...I don't expect to get a phone call....
