FYI -The RANS S6S I've been flying was broken by one of my partners on June 28 in a bounced landing and botched recovery (no injuries). The insurance company finally made the decision to total it, so I've made a deal with Luray Weachter to buy his Jabiru powered Slingshot, once the insurance company pays us, assuming that my inspection does not reveal in unpleasant surprises. I'm getting out of the partnership thing because I've been grounded since June 28 through not fault of my own. That sucks.

So I'l be an actual Kolber, once again, hopefully soon enough to get a lot of good flying time in this summer/fall. Attached is a cropped photo of the airplane which I first saw at Homer's 2007 fly-in. Luray is in the cockpit in this photo, as he departs(I think) Homer's.

Thom,
Good Luck with the purchase of Lurays bird, I am sure you will find it to be
better than advertised. Welcome back to the fold!

Good for you Thom, there is nothing better than having your own Kolb, doing whatever you like with it without having to worry about anyone else ! You will love it.

Mike
