Mike B:
Do you hanger your MKIIIx at Homestead?
Makes me miss my mkIII. Haven't flown it in two months.
I arrived Monument Valley yesterday in rain and fog. The weather gave the
place an erie feeling. Especially, not being able to see the monuments. In
9 trips to MV this is the first time I could not see the monuments. Last
year, John W and I arrived in a rain shower which gave the place an unusual
appearance. But at least we could see the monuments.
I'll send the other photos on the Kolb BBS.
I have a wing on the Dodge, but it ain't big enough to fly.

Hi John,
I bet you do miss your MK III, traveling in such beautiful country and not being able to go up and fly is just not right ! Unfortunately, the past week has been perfect flying weather in Miami, and I have been stuck up north for work The motorcycling/atv riding does sound like a lot of fun though !
Jay,
That part over the everglades was a risk, but the engine and plane have been flying perfectly, so I could not resist, although I do not make a habit out of doing that... You are correct, not a road or anything for many miles. If the engine did quit, I would just put down the flaps, fly straight ahead, and wait to go over on my back There have been quite a few cases where people have flipped their kolbs on landing, and as far as I know they have walked away from it, so I would take that over the chute.
Mike

Y'know John, a lot of the local airplane pilots around here have taken up
PPG in addition to (NOT instead of!) airplane flying. A PPG fits IN your
RV, and you can fly it nearly anywhere...

Dana:
No disrespect for PPG (every time I see that abreviation I think Pittsburg
Plate Glass), but I have my hands full with a dirt bike and atv when I am
roaming.
Most folks know, when I go flying, I fly. Next May, I'll be right back out
here in the MKIII, along with most of the other places I have visited and
explored on this trip.
Never had any desire to haul an aircraft of any type around behind an RV.
Never had to fold, stuff, pack, or otherwise, an aircraft. Don't like to
have to mess with the extra details (work).
