Kolbers- Have been lurking for the  last 10 months after purchasing a firestarII kit from Kolb. Made my first flight  last weekend. Needs a little rigging, I installed an HKS from Jerry Olenik (at)  Green Sky Adventures. Can't say enough about Jerry's help as well as everyone (at)  Kolb & Brian Milburne (sp?) with changes etc. (the plans haven't been  updated since 1996) Thanks also to all the other Kolb builders that gave helpful  construction tips, you know who you are. 

  

 Looking forward to getting back to  the basics of fun flying, most  of my flying career was in production GA  aircraft, the rest in high performance kit planes.

  

 Its already way to fun....   Thanks everyone who help make this happen.  John Sieberts

Great job on flying that Firestar only 10 months after you bought the kit !!!  You also chose the perfect engine for it, you will have a really great time with that plane.
