Just an inquiry,
Tuesday evening about 8:00 pm while flying the MK-3 near Dalton Ohio we saw what we believe to be a dark colored Firestar headed south over Rt.30.Are there any listers who fly in this area?Our club has 1 kolb flying and 3 MK-3s under construction.Our club fly-in drive -in picnic is Sat. afternoon, Aug. 2 (at) Yoder field in Louisville Ohio.We would like to invite any Kolb operators in the area to join us More info at ( North coast lite flyers.org)
Thanx G .Aman Mk-3C 2200 Jabiru 330 hrs.

G Aman,
I'm not the guy you're asking about....but, I'm flying behind a Jab 2200 and wondered how a Mk3 would perform with it mounted. What can you say about your setup relative to an 80 hp 912, pros and cons, suitability, etc.?

Jerry,
I haven't flown a mk-3 with a 912 on it so I can't give you an opinion.But the jabiru is a simpler install,air cooled, a tough and dependable unit.The only draw back is prop speed and the noise that it produces.When you spin a prop at 3100 behind a Kolb it really gets your attention.

| Quote: | Thanks Gary. Agree with all you say about the Jab--including the noise on a pusher. I was swinging a 58" on a Titan and found it noisy. Guys that put 62" props really cranked out the noise. There's a lot to be said noise wise, seems to me, for a high-ratio gearbox swinging three blades on a pusher.
