Mike M accompanied us Kolbers to the Rock House in Oregon last month. Mike
is a very accomplished photographer. He took this shot of Miss P'fer doing
her thing over the Alvord Desert. Thanks Mike.

Nice photo, John. What are those straight lines going from the wing to the halfway point on the wing struts?

Those are streamlined 4130 jury struts. When I was building my MKIII at Old Kolb in 1991, Homer Kolb asked me to install jury struts that were in the plans. Although the factory MKIII did not have them installed, Homer asked me to put them on my MKIII. I had not planned on using them. He told me if I installed them it would encourage others to install them. Don't think I have ever seen another Kolb with jury struts. They did save my left lift strut when I wiped out the landing gear at Muncho Lake, BC, in 2000. When the gear leg/axle socket failed, the aircraft dropped down with the lift strut landing on top of the left main tire. The lift strut would have been bent had the jury strut not been installed.

Thanks, Chris:
I like it also.
Mike Marker is a great photographer, as well as a great airplane builder,
pilot, and adventurer. He is a retired Naval Aviator. He has built 8 or 9
experiementals, still has all of them, and one of them is a Kolb FSII.
I think the way the sun is blasting the windshield is kind of cool.
