Just a note to introduce myself. I just picked up a Firestar KXP w/447. It is currently based at 14N in eastern PA, where I also fly in the glider club. This is my 3rd ul/experimental, coming from a Cobra & a Phantom.
I have a Commercial license, having flown ag planes in the midwest, and did some CFI and glider tow work back east. I've always liked Kolbs, and am anxious to fly this one. After reassembling it from the truck ride home, I still need to attach the wing-gap seal, hook up the strobes and go over it thoroughly before the first flight.
I know this list is a great source of veteran information, and look forward to good advice since one can always learn from others experience.
Anyone else on the list in this area...give me a holler.
Cheers,
Bob Pongracz
Firestar KXP/447

Hi Bob
Welcome to the list. I have a MKII about 100 miles west of you at 79N, Ridge Soaring Gliderport. I do the glider thing also (commercial, CFIG, ASW-15). Let me take this opportunity to invite you, and the rest of the list to a couple fly-ins that we are having.
First, Aug 8, at University Perk Airport (KUNV), there will be a fly-in breakfast from 8 to 11. Our EAA chapter is sponsoring an aviation awareness day for the public with lots of airplanes on display.
Second, and even better is our 8th annual fly-in, camp-in weekend, Oct 3/4 at Centre Air Park (N16). This is a great time and all are welcome. See our chapter web site, www.eaa1327.org for details.
Finally, I hope to fly over your way, with my golf clubs in the passenger seat, to Butter Valley golf course / airport. I'll let you know if I'm in the area.
Again, welcome
Malcolm Morrison

Hi Bob,
I have a FireFly at a grass strip on Engler Rd., near Nazareth, PA.
Mostly flying the patch yet, but if the weather ever stabilizes I'll be
dining at Butter Valley, etc. Shame Kutztown has closed!
BTW, did you have an ultralight visible from Rt. 222 a short time back?
